I like to keep our mantel simple. For this season, I decided to use pine cones, small gourds, pillar candles, votive candles in jars, fresh cranberries in two of the candle holders for a burst of colour, fresh flowers and our simple seasonal garland.
I deliberately left a space in between the pine cones and the pillar candles. This is where I will display the girls’ Thanksgiving craft / artwork from school.

How are you decorating your mantel this fall?

I always forget about decorating the mantel unless it is Christmas time. I will have to put something up especially since I will be hosting Thanksgiving for 20 people at my house this year.
