Use the border class:

xaml:

<Border BorderThickness="1" BorderBrush="Green">
    <WindowsFormsHost x:Name="Host"></WindowsFormsHost>
</Border>

cs:

var myBorder = new Border();
myBorder.BorderBrush = Brushes.Green;
myBorder.BorderThickness = new Thickness(1);
myBorder.Child = new WindowsFormsHost();

The System.Windows.Border class is a type of Decorator, which means it can have a single Child element. In this case, your child would be the WindowsFormsHost.

XAML:

<Border BorderBrush="Green" BorderThickness="1">
   <WindowsFormsHost x:Name="Host"></WindowsFormsHost>
</Border>
