Simple Christmas Mantel

I have told you before that the decorations are minimal this year. I have used a lot of things that won't need to be stored again. No sense in having more clutter.

This year I just used some antique molding and spindles with greenery cut from pine trees put in the yard. I had a problem. Since I wanted simple I didn't want to relocate my bee clock. Lets face it, It looked better for my Halloween Mantel If you just clicked that link you could see that not much has changed.



I added some of my wooden letters from my Etsy shop in a clever way to incorporate the clock. Remember, simple.


It always looks better on person to me. Maybe I just can't capture it right.

but I love it along side the tree.....

                    it adds to the charm.



This simple thing is really getting to be fun! 

Did you finish your mantel yet? I am almost ready for my trip to New York. I will take pictures and share soon!
