Bomorrow on Feb 25, 2013Would have to really see it to comment, but if you just can't make up your mind, wrap the mantle with white paper of some kind - maybe tissue paper since that would be cheap, and see if you like it better brown or white.Helpful Reply

KMS Woodworks on Feb 25, 2013I vote for wood 9 times out of 10. Rustic elements mixed with a clean white and a dash of color is something that works for me.Helpful Reply
