Our Pinteresting Family: Valentine's Day Mantel

Thursday, January 24, 2013

Many of the projects I have shared over the past few posts are now in a new spot on my mantle. The fall mantel I did was the first time I ever decorated my mantel for anything besides Christmas. I have been encouraged to decorate it more now that we are spending more time in this room. Plus I think think the colors of Valentine's Day make me smile.

Here are my Valentine's trees and my mason jar wrapped in jute with a paper heart. I have seen a lot of these mason jars decorated on Pinterest. It was a quick and easy addition to the mantel.

My felt heart bouquet and ombre jar are on the other end of the mantel.

Here is my chalkboard frame sign hanging in the middle. It's my favorite part.

Thank you for checking out my mantel. I added some pom yarn hanging from the top to break up all the brick I wish Rob would let me paint.. :)

Thanks for stopping by!

There's nothing like a good dose of pink, red, and white to cheer things up in February! :)

So pretty! I love it all! Still envious of that shredded paper! I did look for some, but couldn't find any in those pretty colors. *sigh*

What a cutie-pie mantle!! I love the little trees and the mason jar!! I wish I didn't have a TV above mine, it really puts a kink in my mantel decor options!

I am happy to see your mantel is continuing to get some much deserved loved. It looks festive and happy. I can't wait to see it decorated for St. Patrick's day :)

Megan it looks great. Danni~ You can create that paper in any color. Friskers has a paper crimper that they sell. You can then just cut it with a paper cutter.

Ok..that is just too stinkin' cute. I never decorate for Valentine's so I love to see what others do. Livin' vicariously through you.. :)
