Spring Mantel

March 4, 2013 by 39 Comments

I have some exciting news….my friend Martina from Northern Nesting is featuring me today.  She has a wonderful blog, please stop by and say hello.  Thank you so much Martina!

This past weekend I spent a little time adding a touch of spring to the mantel.  Shopping my house for some accessories, I started adding shades of green and white to the mantel celebrating the welcome change in season.

Spring Mantel Spring flowers and branches are tucked in an urn and moss balls add some woodsy texture to this arrangement.

Spring Mantel 1 This little white birdie seems to get around,  I’ve used him in a couple of my other vignettes before.

Spring Mantel 2 The eggs you see scattered here and there may look real, but they’re not. They’ve been in my “Easter stash” for a couple of years and I love to use them in arrangements like this one…I wish I had a few more.

Spring Mantel 3 I love the display of color and texture in this picture.

Spring Mantel 5 I’m enjoying the seasonal transformation on the mantel.  What about you, are you having fun decorating for Spring?

    Your Spring mantel is so pretty, Moni! I really like your blend of different textures — perfecto! I have a very similar silver dish — mine was a wedding gift, so it could now be considered an antique….lol!

  6. Beautiful spring mantel! I need to work on transforming mine from Valentine’s decor to spring. Thanks so much for the inspiration! I love the look of the creams, whites, and moss. Sweet!

  7. I love the natural colours od your mantel. Brittany has been unusually cold lately, so I wasn’t in the mood to decorate for Spring, yet.
