The top project on my list right now is decorating the mantle. I love the idea of a collection of items grouped together on the mantle. Here are some of my favorites:

I will certainly be using this idea come summer when all my roses are blooming. (The stipulation being that I don't kill them in the meantime).
I really, really love the fresh clean look of assorted clear jars and the colorful blooms.
Three amaryllis together look so lovely with the rest of the tone on tone decor.



I'm going to try to comment without typos today! :):)
ReplyDeleteDelightful inspiration, my dear! The vintage bottles are devine.
I bet you can guess what's on my mantel.
I love decorating my mantle... why is it so fun?
ReplyDeleteRight now I have a huge piece of driftwood from a Lake Michigan vacation and an orchid I bought for myself a few weeks back.
I love the look of the grouped vintage bottles... just lovely!
love the collection of vintage glass jars. my mantles are messy, no good at all :(
ReplyDeleteI love that first one with all those colorful roses! SO pretty! Mine is unfortunately a little close to the flat screen above, so there's not a lot of room--because of the tan granite (not my choice) I've got a buddha head, some piles of beach rocks, a little bird...all in earth tones--wish I could do something brighter with the space. You are inspiring as always! :)
