When you don’t have a mantel

I’d been wanting to share some of our Christmas decorations, but time just flew by and I never did until now. We don’t have a fireplace, so I used a shelf in our dining room as our “mantel”. I love how it turned out.

The paper flowers were there since our fall outing, I just added our stockings (we got them at Target). They came with monogrammed with sequins, but I cloned the letters out (for privacy).

I made the “trees” out of Trader Joe’s paper bags. Originally, I planned on decorating them with fabric or paper, but I liked how they looked and matched the rest of the decor. I got the awesome print here. This lady shares some beautiful prints – all for free!

So there you go. Better late than never 😉
