Outdoor Christmas Wreaths

On An American Four Square Porch

The holiday season is just meant for outdoor Christmas wreaths on your porch!

They work well on the front door, on your railings, or tied conspicuously to your porch columns. Mix and match or use the same style and colors to create your very own holiday appeal.

We are very grateful to John Pisello for allowing us to share photos of his beautifully decorated American four-square home.

Built in 1910 by Marion Wallace, the Wallace-Hollis home is uniquely designed with an 1,100 square foot wrap around porch.

Our many thanks to John Pisello for these photos

Outdoor Christmas Wreaths




This could be a daunting task to decorate, but see how John brings out its beauty using Christmas wreath decorating techniques.

The wrap around porch was rebuilt in 2006. Take special note of the porch columns. They were wrapped with additional wood and a panel effect was created by wrapping the existing columns and adding the red trim. The red color on the spindles replicates the original brick red color from 1910.

Simple outdoor Christmas wreaths decorated with red ribbons complement the red trim on the window frames an columns. The poinsettia adds a nice touch too.

Christmas wreath decorations on the front door always add appeal along with the stained glass. This one, again decorated with red accents, has a whimsy feel that softens the look of this stately home.

The outdoor rug (or floor cloth) was made by a local artist. Painted on canvas and sealed against moisture, this beautiful rug with red accent again complements the home's trim color and wreath ribbons.

Often times, we only decorate the porch railings with wreaths. John uses festive garland on the railings and places the wreaths on almost all the windows.

We appreciate sharing John Pisello's photos with you and hope you enjoyed seeing his American four-square home.
