How do I decorate a mantel for Christmas?

Hi Thora, this is one of my favourites.

Nativity set, holly and pinecones, poinsettias, ornaments mixed in with greenery and lights, candlesticks holding ornaments, little Christmas houses. Lots to think about. Have fun

THORA, Find things you love and place on your mantel. Use pictures and christmas ornaments, along with candles. Include greenery and balance. Use your imagination and it will be lovely I'm sure.

Thanks so much for all of your help.

Hi Thora. I'm Cindy. In our last house, we had a fireplace and I loved to decorate the mantle for Christmas. The best advice I can give you is to use large pieces in the middle or at both ends. A lot of little things just fade in the background. You can use branches from Christmas tree. Just lay them on the mantle and mix some Christmas lights in them. Then position your large pieces. If you don't have any large decorations, you can make them. A large vase filled with ornaments would work. Good luck Thora. And Merry Christmas.

Hi Thora - This is how we decorate our home for Christmas. Hope it helps with some inspiration! Hugs, Holly
