One of my favorite places to decorate is the mantel. I haven't yet started decorating for Christmas yet, so I am scanning for ideas right now. Here are a few mantels I just love...
Oh I love the pine cones around the mirror. And the stockings in that picture are to die for! I'm sure whatever you go with it will look wonderful!! Happy decorating!
I like the simplicity of the last one. Plus, that fireplace is so beautiful I'd hate to cover it up with too much decoration. I have two mantles to decorate and I think I put more thought into them than any of the other areas!
Those are all so beautiful, I think you should pick your favorite qualities from each and put them all together! (Who says tulips and pheasant feathers can't go together?) I just know you will creat something wonderful!
I love those mantles. Right up my decorating alley. I don't know why but I can do a good job on the mantle at Christmas time and the rest of the year it looks like crap.
Chelsea~ These are all stunning! I'm hoping for a new mantel this year. I'd like one twice the size as it is now. I can barely squeeze what few decorations I place on it. I venture in with great determination each year in hopes to add just one more....
I adore the tussie mussie you made in your last post. I've made them with gold papered doilies and filled them with Christmas candy. I place them in a basket sitting in my entry, for friends who pop in through the holidays.
I just wanted to let you know that I love your blog. I stop by often. So many projects that you are working on are things that I am planning to start. However,you tend to get things done where I tend to think about them. It's just so funny how we have so many of the same ideas. I truly believe we are kindred spirits. I would love to be able to sit and craft with you. Thanks for sharing. I truly enjoy stopping by!!!
Your blog keeps getting better and better! Your older articles are not as good as newer ones you have a lot more creativity and originality now keep it up!
