I wanted to change my Mantle up after Christmas came down from around the house and get ready for the "LOVE" holiday in February: Valentine's Day. I had asked my dad when I saw him at Christmas if he could cut me some rounds from the logs he was cutting up for firewood and he obliged me. I painted them white and then wrote LOVE on them-I will be doing another post/tutorial on this project later.
Love Hydrangeas! |

New Year Mantle |
Lemon Cypress Topiary-needs a bigger urn, but these will do for now |
I love Candles and have them going every evening-they are on some more firewood rounds from my Dad |
Since I live by the ocean I like to always include a beach element |
I wanted some pinks and reds for Valentine's Day |
I am loving the pops of bright colors right now!
Linking up with:

ReplyDeleteThank you Julie-so many possibilities! I am teaching a class and doing this project at a local shop in a few weeks.
DeleteThank you Janet-I LOVE it too! EASY to make too
ReplyDeleteYour "LOVE" made from the logs is super cute...love your blue chippy chest too!
ReplyDeleteThank you Martina-it was an easy project too!
DeleteYour firewood rounds are so fun to use in your decor...especially the Love sign. Your mantel and display are so pretty with your vibrant colors!

Thank you Mary Alice-I was wanting some color in my house after Xmas came down so I went for pink!
DeleteI love the rustic look it gives your things! Great idea. Wish I lived close to the beach and had flowers growing.

Thank you Brenda-I am lucky to live by the beach and have flowers growing year round! I have lived near the beach my entire life and I am not sure I could ever move away.
DeleteThe Cyclamen is so lovely on your mantle. It reminds me that I should get some myself to add a little green to my frozen world.
ReplyDeleteThank you Quqndie-I needed some color after Christmas and they were so pretty!
DeleteBoth mantel designs are just beautiful!!
ReplyDeleteThank you-I had fun decorating the mantle and my buffet!
DeleteCute idea for a Valentine's box (or for any occasion really). Your mantle vignettes are great - love the pops of color. I'm jealous that you live near the beach while I sit here in the landlocked frozen tundra of the Canadian Prairies.
ReplyDeleteThank you Marie-I have always loved near the beach in CA and seeing the ocean gives me peace and fills my soul. I know I am lucky to live here and I love it!
DeleteI LOVE this idea! Your mantel is gorgeous and every detail so creative. Thanks for bringing your creativity to the Vintage Inspiration Party.
ReplyDeleteThank you Betsy- it was easy and fun-what could be better!
DeleteSuper Cute! Love all the details to your mantel. Really beautiful.
