Easter Mantle

A month ago my friend Angie and I got some pieces of wood cut at Lowe's (they turn the other way when they see us coming now).  I painted mine a variety of spring colors, added vinyl I cut with my silhouette, and tied them up with a bow.

I framed a cute vintage picture I downloaded from the Graphics Fairy blog.

 

I made a wreath using an old grapevine wreath form.  I added moss, eggs, and spring silk flowers.

 And here it is, all put together.

I love the colors all together.  It doesn't really match with my fireplace color, but I can't really paint that for every season :)

Bootiful Mantle

I love decorating for fall, mostly because I love the colors you can use to warm up the house.  I used this frame fitted with burlap

and switched out the stars for foam pumpkins that I cut in half, but kept the stem.

Here is a great picture of the whole mantel put together including the pumpkin specimen art.

I printed a cute little owl silhouette onto burlap, see this tutorial http://poppiesandpinwheels.blogspot.com/2011/08/for-love-of-burlap.html. for how to print directly onto burlap.

I'd love to see your fall decor!!!
