Simple Winter Mantel

Happy Monday! What do you do with the few awkward weeks after Christmas? Do you do a winter mantel or do you go from Christmas decor straight to Valentine’s Day? Well, I like to put up a few winter decorations on my mantel for a few weeks into January while I put together my Valentine mantel. {check out last year’s winter mantel here} Ok, so I like to go all out with my V-day mantel! Its an important holiday to me and so it takes me a couple weeks to put it together. {And I have some really awesome plans for this year!}

Anyways, here’s the simple Winter Mantel I put together for this year.

My theme was icy blue. I used different shades of blue and turquoise. I added some sparkle and shine with touches of metallic.

Love my wood snowflakes!

This cute trinket box is one of my favorite aspects of this grouping. The intricate detail and glass knob are perfect! I found it at Hobby Lobby.

Gotta love a small chalkboard to write little messages on. Gah! Chalkboard!!! Love it. Davis teased me for buying the silver urn at Target’s after Christmas sale. But hey, its ridiculously cute! Love how its slightly distressed and totally awesome. {PS don’t look too closely or you’ll see me behind my tripod snapping pics in the reflection! haha}

Some of you may remember this adorable pair of 2×4 wood snowmen from last year. They are really easy to make! Some of you emailed me and told me about making them with your kiddos. That’s awesome! They are a fantastic kid craft!
