My new obsession is decorating my Mantel!!! It’s the easiest way to bring just a little bit of the holiday spirit into the comfort of your home! I wish we had a more vintage/wood based mantel, however I am doing what I can with what I have! The ledge is small also, so it’s not the easiest thing to do, but I love the end product! It goes great with my new DIY Fall Wreath that you can see here! Hope you enjoy!
