Decorating the fall mantel today! I’m super excited to finally be able to decorate a MANTEL/MANTLE? Even though the fireplace is not completely finished I did manage to get the mantel UP and it’s making me smile.! I PROMISE to show you the entire thing SOON my dears! But it’s very much like me to get sidetracked!:0)
I kept things super simple. Used my collection of pumpkins from last year…most I got right before Thanksgiving on clearance:0) You know that trick don’t cha???
Vase full of fall foliage from Joann’s and a Goodwill vase I got for 2.00
Assorted Pumpkins and pantry beans….
Brown Paper Flowers….Tutorial Next week! You’ll be making these in your sleep:0)
Hope you join me and share you fall mantel too!!! Happy Friday!
Love, love, love! I have a bunch of things, but I can never seem to get them arranged the way I want! It drives me insane! You can feel free to come do mine next if you’d like!

What a gorgeous fall mantle…I think it’s the rustic simplicity that takes it over the top. I’ll be waiting for the tutorial on the flowers!

Gorgeous, Destiny! your paper flowers are so pretty!!
Super cute! How genius to use plain old BEANS up there. Everything looks great!
Oh, and a manTLE is something you wear – like a coat. A mantle of snow on the ground, the mantle is the outside layer of the Earth, etc. A manTEL is the thing over your fireplace. 🙂
Now typically I do not enjoy fall mantels. But. I do believe you have changed my mind! This is one of the prettiest fall mantels I’ve ever seen. You did a beautiful job & like everyone else, I love the unique, beautimous paper flowers! 🙂
As everyone else has commented, this truly is the prettiest fall mantel I’ve seen. Every other one I see is too…something and I just don’t jive on it, but yours….love it. 🙂 pinned it for sure.
