Wrap something around each item in an ItemsControl

Normally you might consider doing this by templating the item container. The problem is the "generic" ItemsControl uses the ContentPresenter as its item container. So even if you try and set a style with ItemContainerStyle you will find you cannot supply a template because the ContentPresenter does not support control templating (it does support data templating but no use here).

To use a templatable container you will have to derrive from ItemsControl like in this example.

An alternative might be just to use the ListBox control instead. Then you can just provide a custom template by setting a ListBoxItem template via a style.

You can read more about containers here .

(With your permissen I'm adding the solution to your answer, Guge)

    <ListBox ItemsSource="{Binding MyObjects}" Grid.Column="1">
        <ListBox.ItemsPanel>
            <ItemsPanelTemplate>
                <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal"/>
            </ItemsPanelTemplate>
        </ListBox.ItemsPanel>
        <ListBox.ItemContainerStyle>
            <Style TargetType="{x:Type ListBoxItem}">
                <Setter Property="Template">
                    <Setter.Value>
                        <ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type ListBoxItem}">
                            <Border BorderBrush="Black" BorderThickness="3">
                                <ContentPresenter/>
                            </Border>
                        </ControlTemplate>
                    </Setter.Value>
                </Setter>
            </Style>
        </ListBox.ItemContainerStyle>
    </ListBox>
