The new living room mantle.
Most of this is just things I already had around the house.
I essentially 'went shopping' around my house.
Cake stand, latte bowls, little bear.
I did get the vintage rosettes in NYC and then glued them on sticks.
Easiest way to get some color, make a stack of books!
I love me some fans.
Paper fans are from the dollar store and the vintage fan is thrifted.
The bib on our mantle is very plain and always needs some sort of embellishment to not look so stark. I saved my old Snow & Graham calendar since the pages are so thick and have beautiful designs. I cut out these stars from the old July page and taped them directly onto the mantle.

So fun! And I love that fan! I have a black one but your silver one is making me want to get another one! Hope you are having a wonderful Memorial Day Holly!

Adorable! I just took down my Easter mantle yesterday... thought I would be the only one having it up so late! Glad we're in this together. :)
You are so dang creative! I'd never think of this type of thing on my own. I'm sure it's so rewarding, too, since you don't have to spend any money (or go anywhere, really!). SO NICE TO MEET YOU YESTERDAY!!
