Love is definitely in the air this week, especially on my Valentine’s Day Mantle. Keeping things classic and simple, yet fun, all at the same time can be a little tricky for me – but if you’re going to go and make a mushy mantle, V-Day is the day to do it! So let’s take a look at how it all came together.
I started it all with the wreath, made with a leftover bunch of barb wire and some felt roses that I made. It was tricky to get them all on the wreath without getting pricked to pieces… the things you do for love!
I kept my favorite mercury glass candlesticks to one side, adding in a sweet little pink bead board heart.
And on the other side is my “be mine” sign with a little whitewashed metal tucked behind.
And then there’s the beautiful bunting from my newest sponsor, BayBeeDahl-Boutique – ain’t she pretty? All that sparkliness & burlap… sigh…
Add it all up and it’s a pretty, simple Valentine’s Mantel that is lovely to look at. Putting it together was such fun – and my girls are crushin’ on it, too!
