You’ve heard of the 12 Days of Christmas, but what about the 25 Days of Doors?

Kim Graham, a Charleston-based photographer for 25 years, has always loved capturing the town’s holiday cheer, especially residents’ fondness for extravagant door wreaths. Kim posts local door décor on her Instagram and website each year, but last holiday season she decided to intentionally dedicate one Instagram post per day for the 25 days leading up to Christmas to a different exceptional wreath. “I decided it would be easier to follow along and build some anticipation,” she said. “People were excited every day to see what the door wreath was, which also challenged me to make sure these 25 shots weren’t too similar. I wanted something unique for each day.”
