Christmas Series: Decorative Christmas Fireplace Mantle

The countdown has begun to counting the number of days left until Christmas Day.  I am sure with this coming weekend that the shopping centers are going to be swamped with last minute shoppers trying to purchase that last minute perfect Christmas gift.

Well, I am going to let everyone enjoy that last minute hustle and bustle while I sit back and enjoy my hot cup of cocoa and enjoy reading my favorite magazine.  You are probably asking yourself “how is she able to be so calm and relaxed with less than 9 days until Christmas?”…that is because I finished my Christmas shopping early…LOL!

However, I maybe finished with all my Christmas shopping, but I am very behind on getting my home decorated for the Christmas holiday.  So for your viewing enjoyment and my procrastination, I am still in the process of decorating my home and posting videos for my Christmas Series.

Each year, I change up the look of my fireplace mantle for the Christmas holiday.  Out of all the spaces in my home to decorate for the holiday season, my fireplace mantle is my favorite.  It is a small area to decorate, but it makes such a big impact in the space.

This year, I decided to go with the colors in gold, silver and white.  In addition, I wanted to keep the fireplace simple in design to flow with the clean transitional design style of my home.  I kept my wreath very simple just by adding in small decorative balls in gold and white.  By keeping the wreath simple, it allowed my deer faux taxidermy head adorned in its gold and white ribbon to take center stage on the wall.

Next by adding the glass hurricane lamps with white candle jars inserted on the inside, it helped to bring some glamour and understated elegance to the mantle.  The white apothecary jars nestled in the corners bring a fresh and clean feeling to the mantle.

Be sure to watch the video at the end of this post so that you can see my unusual way to make an easy “lift” to elevate items in your decorative vignettes.

I finished off decorating my mantle by scattering decorative balls in various sizes and colors and also adding the word plaques, “peace” and “noel”.
