It’s only 4 days until Christmas!! So I am back to share my Christmas mantel in the den. This year I continued my silver and gold theme as I have done in the past, but I added a couple of things just to change it up a bit.
For starters, I took down the artwork over the mantel and put up my pinecone wreath (from Target) in the center. Then I hung up my glistening pine bough underneath the mantel. I layered it with more pine sprigs, gold feathery leaves, brown pinecones and glitter pinecones, plus a string of lights! The top got an assortment of candles in crystal, pewter and glass holders and my glass trees, plus a few more sprigs of greenery and some pinecones. My NOEL letters were center front, again. :) Silver and gold snowflakes completed the display hanging from the pine garland.
On the hearth I displayed my new PB look alike lanterns that I got for Halloween (from Amazon). They are adorned with some glittery sprigs and pine sprays.
Inside the fireplace I decided to stack cut wood like I saw in Country Living magazine. It’s a nice rustic touch that eliminates the ugly view of the inside of the firebox. My Papa came and we cut down a couple of little trees and hauled them out of the woods and up to the house. By the end, I was regretting my plan! :) But I think it turned out nicely, even if it was really hard work! :)
On the coffee table I gathered a bowl of ornaments and pinecones with a trio of candles.
And the couch is sporting the green snowflake pillow that I made a couple years ago.
The blue dresser also got a nod to the season with a couple of white feather trees and a gold grapevine Moravian star. I am planning to add some glitter to this little jewel, soon! :)
Last but not least our stockings were hung on either end of the mantel… Santa, we are ready for you! :)
Merry Christmas Everyone! :)
