Hung outdoors (traditionally on your front door to greet holiday visitors) your wreath should last throughout the holiday season and well into the New Year. What may affect the life of the natural greenery is if your door faces south with long periods of direct sunlight, hanging a wreath between a door and storm door creating a greenhouse effect or if the outdoor temperature fluctuates and/or it is windy creating a drying effect. Some people like to hang our product indoors for part of the season to enjoy the fresh fragrance, then hang outdoors for longer enjoyment. When using indoors or in dry environments, misting with water may prolong the freshness. When the greens begin to look tired, mist and return to the outdoors. In cool moist climates, the product may reclaim some of its’ freshness. As with any natural evergreen product, some needle drop is normal.
If you do not plan to hang your wreath right away, leave it packaged as you received it and place in a cool, dark location such as a garage. Condensation will form on the inside of the bag. In warmer climates, the refrigerator works well.
Indoors, your advent wreath and/or centrepiece should last throughout the month of December and possibly into the New Year. In a dry air environment, misting greens with water will prolong freshness. If you are going away for a few days, the candles may be removed and the base placed in the refrigerator in a plastic bag to extend the life of the greenery.
If you do not plan on using your advent wreath right away, leave it packaged as you received it, place in a cold, dark spot such as a garage. For warmer climates, the refrigerator or freezer works best. If you store it in your deep freeze or outside where temperatures are very cold allow it to defrost before using.
