Burgundy Beauty: How to Style the Burgundy Gingham Bow for Every Home
There’s something about burgundy that instantly feels rich, warm, and timeless. It’s the color of cozy sweaters, candlelight dinners, and that in-between season when fall softly fades into winter. At A Bow or Two, our Burgundy Gingham Bow captures all of that—bringing a refined pop of color to your home’s exterior or interior decor.
Whether your style leans classic, farmhouse, or modern, this bow has a way of fitting right in. Here’s how to make the most of its versatile charm.
Classic Elegance: Let Burgundy Do the Talking
For homes with traditional details—think black shutters, brass hardware, and wreath-adorned doors—the burgundy gingham bow is the perfect complement.
It adds just enough depth and pattern without overpowering the entryway. Try pairing it with natural greenery or evergreen garland for a timeless, festive look that feels both fall-ready and winter-appropriate.
If your home’s palette includes cream, tan, or muted gray, the rich tone of this bow creates contrast that immediately draws the eye to your front door—your home’s true focal point.
Farmhouse Warmth: Layer with Natural Textures
Farmhouse style is all about cozy textures and authenticity. For a home that features wood tones, shiplap, or brick, the burgundy gingham bow also feels like a natural fit.
Try styling it alongside a scalloped wicker basket filled with pinecones or fall greenery. A scalloped oak cutting board or oak trivet inside your entryway helps carry the same warmth indoors, tying your decor together from porch to kitchen.
The result? A layered, inviting look that says “welcome home” before guests even step inside.
Modern Simplicity: A Bold Yet Balanced Accent
If your style leans modern—clean lines, neutral walls, and a love for simplicity—the burgundy bow can become your single statement piece.
Against a sleek black, navy, or white door, it adds just the right amount of color and softness.
Keep everything else minimal: a simple doormat, a pot of greenery, or maybe a lantern or two. The beauty of modern decor is restraint, and the burgundy gingham bow proves that a single, well-chosen piece can make the strongest impression.
Transitional Homes: Blending Old and New
For those who love mixing vintage finds with newer pieces, the burgundy bow bridges eras seamlessly. Try pairing it with ruffled placemats and ruffle napkins in soft neutrals for a dinner table that feels thoughtfully layered and coordinated with your door decor.
Small details like repeating gingham patterns or matching wood tones throughout the home help create harmony—something we talked about in The Art of Layering: A Guide to Layering Decor for a Polished, Curated Look .
Seasonal Versatility: From Autumn to the Holidays
One of the reasons we love burgundy is how gracefully it transitions through the seasons.
In early fall, it pairs beautifully with pumpkins, hay bales, and golden leaves (see Little Details, Big Impact: 4 Easy Ways to Warm Up Your Entryway This Fall ).
By December, simply swap in evergreen, twinkle lights, or a solid cream bow to layer for a festive look that feels elevated yet effortless.
It’s a hue that never rushes the season—it simply adapts, just like your home.
A Statement That Lasts
Every door bow from A Bow or Two is designed to withstand the elements while maintaining its shape and vibrancy. The Burgundy Gingham Bow is made from durable, high-quality fabric that resists fading and keeps its full, sculpted look all year long.
Whether you’re styling your front door, hanging it above a mirror, or tying it to a banister, this piece brings texture, warmth, and charm that feels personal—never overdone.
