Our Summer Mantel:
This summer our mantel held a blended collection of summer favorites
propped against a framed large canvas painting of a sailboat.
I added some soft lighting with a strand of white icicle lights.
(yes icicle lights in the summertime)
Instead of draping the lights over the mantel edge, I laid the lights
flat on the mantel. The white cord and the multiple strands of lights
brighten my display and was easy to arrange around our mantel decorations.
A pretty collection we enjoyed all summer long, but the changing weather brought a new look
to our living room.....
Our Fall Mantel:
Just last week we received our shipment of new
fall garlands that I found in one of our suppliers catalogues. I couldn't wait to create a fall mantel grouping around this awesome autumn themed garland.
A bendable twig base, filled with green, red and yellow leaves, red pip berries in two sizes and acorns fill this
harvest themed garland.
Great natural colors and blend of fall themed accents.
I wrapped a strand of our
around the fall garland
I added a pair of garden birds on pedestal bases
to the center of the mantel
These would also be cute in a vintage birdcage!
balance each side of the mantel.
and
Over the mantel I placed our
great raised details on this mirror
