Christmas Mantels

Take a look at these beautiful Christmas mantels and become inspired.....

Add coppery tones to the traditional red and green.


Love your blue and white peices? They look great with red and gold accents.

 

Are you a Santa collector? Group all your favorite pieces together on the mantel and throughout your home.


An antique gilt frame mirror showcases a classic wreath adorned with cream and white ribbon.
Tall paperwhites add vertical interest.


No need to spend a fortune on decorating your mantel.
Gather items you have around the house and cluster them for a classic winter scene. 


Love your pewter? Show it off surrounded by evergreen boughs and filled with festive blooms.


A frosty wonderland! Create this cold weather focal point with an oil painting, wall sconces, garland and
tree toppers. The blue really gives it that extra punch!


Have we inspired you? Which was your favorite?
