Luv On The Mantel

by Laurie

I've added some Valentine love to our mantel. It all starts with the vintage window. Actually, it all starts with the board my husband cut. I asked him to cut it to make our mantel deeper (I like to put a lot on the mantel). I painted the board, and I put it on top of the existing mantel when a need more depth for the decor.

For Valentine's decor, I added eyelet to the edge of the board.

That gave me the depth I needed to add a vintage window with vintage Valentine cards and a chalkboard heart banner across the top.

I tied a piece of Valentine ribbon around battery-powered candles to turn them into Valentine candles.

Hearts decorate aluminum Christmas trees on the hearth. (No, I have not left the trees up since Christmas!)
