As the festive season approaches, British households are searching for those perfect decorative touches to create a warm, Christmassy atmosphere. Answering this call is Bunches, a beloved family-run florist that has just unveiled a stunning collection of Christmas wreaths, each priced at £26.50.
Established in 1989, Bunches has grown from a small family enterprise into a trusted national name in gifting. The brand has built a strong reputation, with countless positive reviews from delighted customers who describe their wreaths as 'lovely,' 'beautifully made,' and 'really pleasing' additions to their holiday decorating schemes.
A Wreath For Every Festive Taste
Whether you want to adorn your front door, brighten your dining table, or add a welcoming touch to your living room, Bunches offers a wreath to suit every style. Let's explore some of the standout designs from their new collection.
The Festive Fireside Christmas Wreath measures 30cm in diameter and features deep red berries that the florist says 'glow like embers' amongst natural pinecones. This design offers a classic, striking pop of festive colour.
For those seeking something different, the Whimsical Winter Wreath presents a crisp and elegant look. It captures the essence of a woodland forest with swirled pink flowers, glittering pinecones, and delicate pearls, creating a uniquely beautiful winter display.
The Enchanted Frost Christmas Wreath is perfect for lovers of muted tones. Adorned with frosted pinecones, blue baubles, and pearl accents, it aims to create the wonder of an enchanted winter forest, much like a scene from a fairy tale.
Evoking memories of family walks in wintry woods, the Woodland Charm Christmas Wreath features striped ribbons, textured pinecones, clusters of berries, and vibrant green foliage for a fresh, wholesome, and nature-inspired Christmassy vibe.
Finally, the Candy Cane Christmas Wreath brings a touch of sweetness to the festivities. It combines natural frosted pinecones with bright red berries for a cheerful and unmistakably festive display.
Customer Acclaim and DIY Alternatives
While there are no individual product reviews for the wreaths on the Bunches website, customers have flocked to Trustpilot to share their experiences. One satisfied shopper gushed, "Christmas wreath was lovely and arrived on time. Great customer service... Would highly recommend."
Another praised the company's ethical approach, stating, "Lovely festive wreath, fully recyclable. Brilliant. Great to know I am dealing with a company with high ethical standards."
It's not all perfect, however. Some customers have deducted a star from their ratings for issues like delivery problems, with one noting that a delivery was attempted when the recipient was out and no card was left.
For the craft-inclined, Bunches also provides a comprehensive step-by-step guide on how to create your own wreath at home. The process requires a wreath base (vine or wire), flowers and foliage, sharp scissors, and wire or German pins. The brand advises trimming stems to 8-15cm, securing foliage to the base, artfully arranging flowers, and filling any gaps with extras like pinecones or dried fruit.
How Bunches Stacks Up Against The Competition
Shoppers looking for festive decorations have several options this season. Argos offers its Argos Home Flowers and Foliage Wreath for a budget-friendly £7. Made from polyester, it's designed for indoor use and comes pre-decorated.
Meanwhile, Lakeland sells a reusable Winter Berry Wreath for £29.99. This option, measuring approximately 50cm in diameter, is promoted as ideal for doors, walls, or banisters.
Beyond wreaths, Bunches maintains a wide range of cards and hampers suitable for all occasions, solidifying its position as a go-to for gifting and festive cheer during the Christmas period and throughout the year.
