Monogram Christmas Wreath

I love boxwood! Not sure if its because I live in the south, but boxwood wreaths are one of my favorite things. So over the weekend, I put this classy boxwood Christmas wreath together. The candy cane striped monogram is so festive! Pairing boxwood with a fab monogram was the perfect pairing. {check out my Monogram Fall wreath!}
