Southern Living decorated mantels always inspire me.
Full, elegant, natural... I love them.
This year I was thinking a more natural Autumn mantel for the bedroom.
Leaf covered branches and sprigs of eucalyptus
Chunky mossy pinecones
and pale green dried hydrangea blooms
I found most of my inspirations just outside in our backyard
and while on walks with my daughter.
I brought the cast iron urns in to the bedroom
and found the leaf covered branches on a tree in the backyard
Snapping off a few bunches of them-
they are wonderful in the urns and their leaves are a fantastic shade of green.
The arched 'window' was a Home Goods find.
It was a perfect backdrop for the Autumn wreath
covered in muted tones of the season.
I'm not sure this mantel will be staying this way...
not 100% loving it yet - but I do like it
:)
I am working on the living room mantel next and
will be sharing it soon.
Hope everyone had a fantastic weekend!!
Happy Monday!
