Last month, I received a beautiful wreath for my front door. In daylight, the wreath’s vivid natural shape and life-like boxwood leaves take my front door decoration to another level. But, the wreath does not look eye-catchy at night due to the absence of light. The only solution I found is to add some warm lights so that the wreath remains attractive and eye-catchy even at night.
How many lights do I need per inch of wreath? You need 1 light per inch of the wreath. But, you have to overlap the loop of the light multiple times depending on the depth size of the wreath.
When you’re watching the wreath at night, imagine a shiny wreath emitting warm lights. Isn’t it refreshing? Actually, wreaths are the best way to keep you naturally charged. But you need to decorate them with perfect numbers of light to get a min-refresh night view.
On this point, you need the proper amount of lights to decorate your wreath.
Best All-Around (Artificial Wreaths)
How Many Lights Do I Need Per Inch Of Wreath?
To get the proper amount of lights, you have to follow 2 steps. Let’s check these steps below.
Measure Wreath Diameter & Depth
Most of the wreath includes proper measurement. We are not measuring these wreaths. But, some of the wreaths come in a smaller shape compared to the advertisement. As a result, you have to know the proper wreath diameter and depth.
For measuring the diameter, measure the distance between one end to another end. The total distance is the actual diameter of your wreath. For example, if you get 10 inches the distance between two ends, the diameter of your wreath is 10 inches.
Once you get finished with the diameter, you have to measure the depth of the wreath. For depth measurement, place the wreath on a flat surface. Then take a measurement tape and place one end on the surface to calculate the depth of the wreath.
Calculating Total Amount of Lights
After measuring the length and depth, it’s time to calculate the amount of the total lights. For calculating the number, you need 1 light per inch of the wreath. For example, if the diameter of the wreath is 20 inches, you need 20 lights.
Now, depending on the depth size, you have to multiply the numbers of light with the depth of the wreath. For example, if the depth of a 20 inches wreath is 2-3 inches, then you need at least 40-50 lights for your wreath.
Further, the depth of a wreath increases with its diameter size to keep it eye-catchy. So, as long as the diameter increases, you need more lights to make the decor of your house attractive and enjoyable for your guests.
