Hanging your wreath!

I chose an Outdoor Command Metal Hook for my wreath – I needed something both sturdy (holding up to 5 pounds, way more than my wreath!) and beautiful.

My front door has silver hardware and I wanted
a wreath hanging device that would match and look like it belonged with or
without a wreath on it – this metal hook in “brushed nickel” was
perfect!

It matched my existing hardware perfectly. It
looked like it came on the door and was always meant to be there!

I loved that this hook was easy to apply in a couple of minutes without any
help from the hubs – yay girl power! If you need help applying your hook CLICK HERE.

 

My wreath was on the door and looking beautiful so quickly and effortlessly –
AND NO NAILS IN MY DOOR! Also no tacky metal over-the-door wreath hangers. I’d
much rather have a simple hook that comes off without any fuss (although why
would you ever take this handy hook off your door, I ask you?)

I was so excited to find my Command Hooks at Target on sale – I saved a few
dollars and that means more money in the yarn budget!

I even picked up a pack of my favorite around-the-house Command General Purpose
hooks, the plain ole utility ones. They’re not as fancy looking as my Metal
Hook out front but they are every bit as purposeful!

I love using them in my studio for quilting rulers and hanging scissors away
from tiny hands. I also use a couple of them to hang a dollar store wire basket
for knick knacks near my desk – super handy to have extras of these little
hooks all around!

The Create with Command site has so many more great ideas for using these hooks
around the house this holiday season – check out allof that great content HERE!
