Default Bow placement on your holiday wreaths

I'm looking to answer a long-standing question of where I should attach the bows to the pine wreaths I hang from the windows of my about to be festively decorated house. I usually prefer it on the bottom, but I noticed a bunch of toppers in the neighborhood already.

In case you need an illustrated example, here is a bottom:


and here is a top

Thread would've been much more fun had it been titled "Are you a top or bottom"

Top bows are the equivalent of hanging your toilet paper underhand. Just don't do it.

I've honestly never once in my life put any thought towards this question. But since being presented with examples I'm very much a bow on the bottom kinda guy.

I'm with GoinAllTheWay. I never thought about it before but now I'm a staunch supporter of bottom bows.

I think a front door with a bowed on top wreath indicates a swinger household.

This is simple, treat it as a mating call.

Top - you prefer being on top.
Bottom - you prefer being on the bottom.

Pretty sure there's a well traveled road in Calgary that answers this question...

What if you were to put the bow on the bottom and then hang it upside-down?

What about a circle of bows with a wreath on the bottom? That would mess with people.
