While BBCrafts offers a lovely selection of wreath accents like their Bird with Flowers sign [BBCrafts Fall Metal Sign], they likely won’t be your one-stop shop for wreath flowers themselves. Fresh flowers for wreaths are typically seasonal and require special care to stay looking their best.
Here’s a quick rundown on where to find wreath flowers:
- Florists: Local florists stock a wide variety of fresh blooms and can often create custom wreaths based on your preferences. They can also advise on the best flowers for a wreath depending on the season and desired look.
- Garden centers and farmers markets: During spring and summer, these places offer a vibrant selection of seasonal flowers perfect for DIY wreaths. Look for blooms that are sturdy yet fresh, and ask about their recommendations for long-lasting wreath flowers.
- Your own backyard: If you have a green thumb, consider using homegrown flowers in your wreath! Just be sure to choose blooms at their peak freshness and maturity.
