12 Cabinet Wreath Ideas To Decorate Your Space For The Holidays

We love cabinet wreaths because they're such a creative way to bring holiday cheer into your home without cluttering your walls or doorways. But if you ask us, the best part about cabinet wreaths is their versatility and ease of installation. Not only can you customize them to match your existing decor — sometimes with materials you've already got in your craft stash — but you can even swap them out seasonally for year-round cheer. 

Whether you prefer traditional evergreen and metallic accents, modern minimalist designs, or whimsical DIY combinations, there's a cabinet wreath style for every aesthetic. We've found 12 cabinet wreath ideas that we absolutely adore; each with its own unique take on the concept. We'll dive into what's unique about each aesthetic plus share a few tips for how you can recreate it easily on your own. So, plug in the glue gun, DIY a few wreath forms, and break out the ribbon hoard, because it's time to DIY.

This project gives you total control over the size of your seasonal cabinet wreaths by ditching preformed circles for wired evergreen garlands. The artificial fir needles provide a lush, traditional look that warms up any kitchen, while the gold ribbon adds that classic holiday look. To get that seamless wreath shape, cut a piece of garland about 2.5 times your desired diameter, then simply overlap the ends and twist the wire "branches" together to lock it in place. That way, you save yourself the hassle of fighting with floral wire.

This design is a master class in texture, using heavy flocking to soften standard greenery into a plush, light-reflecting feature. The "winter white" look pops against any background, while the black velvet ribbon adds a sharp, modern aesthetic we just adore. Because DIY flocking can be notoriously messy, give your wreaths a good shake outside, then use a clear matte sealant or strong hairspray before bringing them indoors. This helps bind the faux snow to the needles, keeping that sophisticated, snowy look on your wreath and off your countertops.

The woodsy, twisted texture of these jute wreaths introduces a simple, rustic element that contrasts beautifully with smoother cabinet surfaces, especially when paired with trendy gingham patterned ribbon. To keep things looking polished rather than messy, bind the wreath's ends together with hot glue and hide the seam under the ribbons. Also, hot glue a strong magnet right at the point where the ribbon meets the wreath and on the part that hangs on the cabinet interior. It's a tape-free method that avoids damaging your cabinet's paint.

This setup nails that cozy, rustic vibe by incorporating natural elements like pine cones and rust-colored jingle bells. The plaid ribbon acts as the perfect visual anchor, tying the wilder texture of the mixed greens together. If your cabinet faces are glass like this, VIS'V's Suction Cup Hooks work great and don't take away from the main attraction — the wreaths! Also, if you can't find the right color bells, swap them for pine cones. It's a fantastic way to bring a bit of farmhouse charm into your kitchen without it feeling cluttered.

Blending white berry sprigs with standard greenery creates a lovely, frosted effect on your cabinet wreath that mimics a light dusting of snow, making it feel fresh and wintry. It's a subtle way to introduce a snowy theme without dealing with the mess of actual flocking. This crafter also used velvet ribbon with wire to create hooks that hang the wreath without hardware, which is brilliant. Don't use your regular scissors to cut this, though, or you may damage the blades. Use something like TOOLMAK's 9 Inch Aviation Tin Snips instead.

Using eucalyptus leaves alongside traditional pine wreaths like this DIYer did brings a soft, varied texture that we think feels very upscale and sophisticated. The pop of red from the lingonberries adds just the right amount of festive color without overwhelming the design and ties into the deep red ribbon hanger nicely. Adding a drop of eucalyptus essential oil would complete the aesthetic and give you that awesome spa smell whenever you walked by. It's a great choice if you want something that feels high end and a little less traditional.

Sometimes less really is more, and this minimal approach proves it. A simple green wreath with a few pine cones lets the natural beauty of the foliage take center stage, while a high-quality satin ribbon adds just a touch of understated elegance without screaming for attention. The warm copper tone of the ribbon here complements the wood cabinetry beautifully, creating a cohesive look that feels intentional. To keep your ribbons from fraying and looking messy over time, lightly run a lighter flame along the cut edge to seal it instantly.

There's something timeless about sticking to pure green, especially in a decor style that values simplicity. These mini wreaths focus entirely on the lush texture of the needles, creating a clean, unified rhythm across your cabinetry that feels organic and effortless. Hanging them with simple twine instead of heavy ribbon enhances that earthy, natural vibe. If you're worried about them banging against the doors every time you grab a snack, stick a small bumper pad or a bit of mounting putty on the back of the frame.

This wreath is all about celebrating raw, organic textures. The exposed rattan base provides a strong, woody structure that feels incredibly organic, while the cluster of frosted white leaves at the bottom adds a soft, wintery contrast. It's minimalist but textural, perfect for a kitchen with natural wood finishes. The simple striped ribbon hanger keeps it feeling casual and approachable. It's a fantastic example of how you don't need lush greenery to make a pretty holiday statement.

Dried citrus is a classic element that brings a pop of warmth and nostalgia to your decor. Here, a single dried orange slice adds a natural touch to a basic mini pine wreath. The rustic burlap ribbon enhances that old-world charm, making the whole setup feel cozy and inviting. Plus, dried oranges are super easy to DIY; just slice them thin and bake them on low heat until they're dehydrated. It's a budget-friendly way to add color and a subtle, citrus scent to your kitchen.

If your holiday style leans more playful and retro, these candy cane-inspired wreaths are absolute perfection. They ditch the traditional greenery entirely for red and white tinsel, creating a sparkly look that screams festive fun. The addition of the ornaments and striped candy canes reinforces the theme without taking itself too seriously or looking cluttered. It's a bold, cheerful choice that would look amazing in a family kitchen or a space with a retro diner vibe. Sometimes you just have to embrace the kitsch!

This design brings a peaceful, nature-inspired element to your cabinets with the addition of a single white dove perched right in the center. The bird acts as a unique focal point, breaking up the standard circle of greenery and adding a touch of whimsy. Small gold bells scattered throughout the foliage add a subtle metallic shine that catches the light without overpowering the natural look. It's a gentle, fairy-tale-style approach to holiday decor that's perfect for creating a serene atmosphere in the heart of your home.
