Mantel Link Party

Welcome to our Mantel Link Party!
I am so excited to be a part of this years week long holiday block party!

A HUGE thank you to the gals At The Picket Fence for putting this party together and having me back!

Are you ready for picture overload?


I had a blast putting this years mantel together.
I used natural textiles, keeping somewhat of an organic feel with pops of shimmer.

If you are interested in any of the materials used to build our mantel you can find them here.

 
 
 
 
Letters purchased at Michael’s spray painted in white and given a coat of Valspar Pearl.
 
 

 

 
You can see how I made the ornaments here.
 


 


You can find the printable here.

 

  All of the candles are LED purchased at Costco, the tea lights I found at the dollar store!

So how about ANOTHER giveaway to kick this party off right!

Told you this week would be packed full of surprises!

One lucky person will be winning

3 ticking lavender sachets in red and white from my shop!
Your choice of stamp and ribbon!
 
Red and white holiday sachets

  1. I saw that printable the other day when you posted it. I love it! The color you chose is my favorite. There is something about white and sparkle with silver that is elegant.soft and simple. Calming maybe.
    JOY is one of my favorite words this year:) Thanks for your hosting and giveaways and making this week fun! Now off to bed and I will come around in the morning and do some visiting.

  13. Thank you for hosting..this was one of the incentives for me to decorate my mantle early. Am now following.

  14. I really love your mantel. It's really hard to pick my favorite element. I think I'm going to have to go with the color scheme. No, make that the decorative trees. Wait…it's the framed sign. See what I mean, it's all so beautiful. Great job!
