I store my wreaths in clear suit bags and hang in closet on wooden hangers (assisted by either string or shower curtain hangers). That way they don’t get dusty. Swags and smaller arrangements can be stored in the bottom of the bag too. Then they can be stored on clothing racks (if necessary) in environments like basements, garages, attics, etc.
Also use clear tubbies and place the rest of my florals in separate tubbies by season except I have one for just “greens” meaning year round. This tip works well for me.

Winward makes beautiful faux flowers. Again, they are not the inexpensive ones but can serve you well for years. Additionally, many faux flowers can tolerate a little cleaning in a warm bath with regular Dawn dish soap. Test first for color fastness. Also, a very realistic faux can be made more realistic with a few real flowers. Consider something like mixing a lovely faux hydrangea with some fresh roses.
