It's a Two in One Day

Wow! Two posts in one day! This week I've been showing my outdoor decor, but I couldn't resist joining the mantle decorating party being thrown by Kari and Kijsa.
I've posted pictures of my mantles before:
(Technically this is not a mantle, just a very large shelf.)

I really enjoy changing out my decorations.
Here's what my mantle looks like today
,
decorated with an old ceiling tin,
milk glass vases and moss balls

I'll be changing things soon to 4th of July decorations,
so check back next week. Thanks for stopping by!

Wow! You are really talented. Your mantels look like they should be in a magazine. Thanks for sharing them with us--you gave me some good new ideas! -Julia :-)

Marie said...

So pretty! But I'm not surprised!! It looks like you have as much room above your mantle as I do. (meaning the ceiling is low) I love how you arranged yours...

Love, love, love the rounded rocks on the front of your home.

Impressive collection of milk glass vases. Were they all thrifted finds?
It's a great look for summer.
I've mentioned it before, but I just love the church on your mantle. I'm still on the lookout but have only found houses. I like that yours has the candlelight inside too.
Did you make it? I won't be surprised if you did since you're so handy.

BTW, thanks for popping by. I've been so busy since we got back from vacation and with helping my Mom get settled etc. I promise to get back to posting soon. I do have a couple of projects on the go. :)

Love the big shelf/mantle.I think putting up my americana stuff every year at the first of June is one of my favorite things to do.I can do that in June right? Flag day is in June, isn't it? I can't wait to see what you do.
