Sharing my Christmas mantel today. I always need to find room for the father Christmas art from Kirkland's - I've had it for years now, and I just love the holiday feel it gives the room. The stockings I made when our daughter was born - last year we added one for her boyfriend. Although there may be trendier, prettier stockings out in the world today, I would never trade these in. They are beautiful to me because of the many Christmas seasons they have been through! Family treasures and traditions - do you use those when you decorate for the holidays too?
I used a green garland with white lights, added a cranberry garland, and then filled in with green and red Christmas ornaments and green twirly picks to give it some movement and a fun element. They I used various stars to complete the look. I like to keep the mantel simple because I tend to have a lot of décor going around throughout the room.
Few things can rival a Christmas mantel in my book - so inviting and homey. Just the way I like it at holiday time!
Thanks for stopping by
