    How to Style a Mantel - Tip Tuesday

    Published: Aug 16, 2016 by Christina Dennis · This post may contain affiliate links · This blog generates income via ads · Leave a Comment

    I love decorating our fireplace mantel to celebrate each season! I use the same simple formula almost every time, and I like how easy it is to get a cohesive and beautiful looking vignette on my mantel. Let me share my simple mantel decorating formula with you today!

    I like to start with a large focal point in the center of my mantel like this giant DIY reclaimed wood clock I made. Next, I anchor each side of the mantel with a smaller pair of objects like these topiaries.

    Finally, I fill in the spaces with smaller objects like faux florals.
