Here is our Christmas Mantel! I love decorating for Christmas and I especially love it now that we have a fireplace and mantel. I love the traditional look of hanging our stockings on the mantel. Other than that I kept it pretty simple.
I found the potted plant and soldier at Target. Noah actually picked out the soldier himself, though I think he'd rather play with it than have it as decoration.
I got the stocking hangers a few years ago from Crate and Barrel. I even have an extra one in a box in case we have another child ;)
Here's a glimpse of our tree. We got an artificial unlit tree and put the lights on ourselves. I read a tip on Pinterest about putting both large and small lights on it to give it dimension and I have to say I love it. We are going to decorate it as a family on Friday night.
I love your mantel decorations! That's my dream one day... to have a house with a mantel that I can decorate. Maybe one day :)
ReplyDeleteLove your tree too! It looks awesome with big and small lights! I wish I had known that little Pinterest tip before we decorated and lit our tree... I'll have to remember that for next year!
