My Spring Mantel




Today I'm sharing my mantel all decked out for spring! 


It's a bit of a departure for me.  I used a lot of natural elements - pussy willow branches,  a boxwood wreath with a burlap bow, moss, jute balls, grapevine, and faux eggs that look somewhat natural!


This redware bunny was made by a local craftsman and I've had it now for several years.   She makes her yearly appearance each spring!


Thanks for stopping by today to see a bit of spring at my house!

  8. Very pretty! I like that it has hints of Easter, but you could totally leave it up after the holiday if you wanted too. I always love pops of green in decor!

  15. Doreen, your mantel is lovely. I really like the bird's nest and eggs. It's great, too, how you placed the blooming tulip inside the wire cloche--love it!
