You may be surprised to learn that the idea of hanging a wreath on your front door originally came from the ancient Greeks. Famed for hosting athletic competitions like the marathon and the Olympics, the age-old society would herald each winner with a crown of olive leaves, and sometimes the athlete would in turn hang it on their door as a sign of victory. But you don’t need to win a gold medal to foster the celebratory vibe that these verdant circlets connote; in fact, a festive summer wreath hung on your entry is the perfect way to liven up your porch or simply greet guests with a sunny welcome. How about a gorgeous lavender wreath, or a festive red, white, and blue version for the Fourth of July? Still not sure what to look for?
