I still can't believe that I was able to pull this off, but with some help from my sweet hubs, the boxes came down and back up, in less than 48 hours. Funny thing is, I am really lovin' how it all looks, so maybe, I should keep this in mind, when next year rolls around. Today, I am sharing my mantel with all of you. Again this year, my theme for it has to do with nature. I did change several things, so let's see what I have done in 2014.
Blessings,

2014 Christmas Mantel
My mantel wreath has something
new this year.
It's this sweet driftwood nativity.
A vintage rusty scale and an ironstone
pitcher found their way to the mantel.
This darling little lamb showed up too.
Mini glitter pine cones were added
for some bling!!!
I guess, this old chippy paint cabinet
door will always stay here.
Our stockings are hung
and are just waiting to
be filled with some goodies.

I'd love for you to stay connected with Coastal Charm...so come on over and join me there!!!
Your mantel is right up my alley. I love the cabinet door that creates a great focal point with the wreath attached. The driftwood nativity is so wonderful! You can never go wrong with an old rusty scale and ironstone. Your whole display with all its different textures is festive and lovely!!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful Linda, love all the greens you added!
ReplyDeleteYour mantel is so pretty! The old chippy door should stay there...it's perfect. :)
ReplyDeleteIt's gorgeous Linda! I'm loving that chippy paint on the door...I'm afraid I would have to leave it there year round, too. Who would have thought of the beans with the ornaments? Clever and cool!

Oh my goodness, I'll have to look back to see what I liked the most. I love the chippy door as a back drop. I love the smell of coffee beans in a hurricane vase.The scale is great. Always love the rusty crusty, but my all time favorite is ironstone. Just love it all. This would be my favorite of all that I've seen so far!
ReplyDeleteI'm loving the little lamb.

I love the natural theme. Our tastes are so similar. I have ironstone pitchers all over my house with hydrangeas in them! The lamb is precious.
