Did You Know
Artificial wreaths and real-greenery wreaths are often made with small, metal parts and varying kinds of plastic decor. These materials cannot easily be separated or recycled using traditional methods. Artificial wreaths and floral items should be reused, donated, or placed in the garbage. Real wreaths with wires, decor, or other parts that cannot be removed should also be placed in the garbage.
