The mantle

This is the first year I've "gone all out" with a holiday mantle, and I am loving it.


Out of curiosity, I went back and checked out my mantle from last Christmas. Well, just see for yourselves.

Just a "bit" of a difference Is it bad that I already forgot we used to have carpet in there?

  1. love it! almost makes me want to paint my brick white...but it might be too much white with the bookshelves flanking it on either side. I want to pick up some mantle decor on clearance this year.

  2. AMAZING! When you're done, if you'd just stop by my house and do a bit of decorating, that'd be great. :)

  4. The whites and silvers are so pretty against the fireplace now. And I adore the simple line of ornaments. Great job!
