Hello and WELCOME to Coastal Charm!!! Today I will be sharing my Christmas mantel that I have all ready for the holidays...so let's see what ideas I had for it this year. I'm one that never has the same display on my mantel from year to year...I always love changing it up..do you do this too? This year I wanted to go with a vintage/rustic look and I'm really happy with the outcome of it...thank goodness because I don't have the time to change it...you know what I mean? Several of the items I already had and a few of them have been recent THRIFTY purchases...you know me...I'm all about THRIFTY! Okay now let's take a look at what I came up with.
Thanks for coming by,
Linda

I LOVE your vintage, rusty and shabby mantel Linda and that old chippy cabinet door looks great!
It's sooo lovely....I have mantel envy! xo
Linda, I love the chippy wood with the rustic wreath. I have two vintage Santa mugs and the red is nearly rubbed off. The watch is great up on that mantle to, so glad you remembered it. Happy Christmas ♥ Olive
I love it all! I have so many of those items in my house already too. The cotton (an Alabama girl has got to have cotton) and my husband has so many deer antlers. Of course I adore the wooden spools and am always on the lookout for them. I love the rustic look!
Hugs,
Donna
I love that French script ribbon, Linda! I think you've achieved your goal of a vintage, rustic and shabby look for your mantel! I love all the elements you added. It also has a more natural look to me.
Love your vintage rustic shabby mantel and your thrifty finds. The board backing the pretty wreath is just perfect! Great elements and what a find on that pretty ribbon. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful Linda! Love the cotton branch, and your wreath hooked on the cabinet has such a wonderful vintage look! You know I love vintage, thanks for sharing!

I Love your Christmas Mantle... I too went with a Salvage Memory Christmas this year... Simple, Thrifty and expedient since I didn't have a lot of time to decorate and Style this year but I wanted an effect that would still embody the Christmas Spirit of our Home. I plucked some Cotton from a Farm too to put in a Vase... it's the closest thing to Snow we have here in the Desert. *Winks* And I love the way it looks...
Christmas Blessings from the Arizona Desert... Dawn... The Bohemian
Linda, I love the way you mixed mercury glass with the chippy cabinet door...very rustic/shabby chic!
Blessings, Audrey
