| Living Room Fireplace Mantel |
Hello family, friends and fellow bloggers! Welcome to my home at Christmas. Thanks for stopping by and taking a peak. I was overjoyed at how the dining room mantel turned out this year. I spent a whopping $36.75 for all the items (not including the fresh wreath. That was a gift from my hubby). Lemme break it down some: 3 for $1.00 fluffy birdies, $1.00 tin plates, $4.00 bag of cinnamon pinecones, $.25 clearance for silver balls, $1 red stockings, $1 pine garland. $1 glass candle holders, $2.50 cranberry candles. Yes, I shop for bargains! All of the $1 items were from The Dollar Store and the rest was from Walmart. I'm thrilled how the dining room mantel turned out! Its never looked this pretty in the 15 yrs we've lived here. The focus was always on the living room mantel and I'm happy I could pour some love in that poor neglected stone fireplace. Its my new happy place in our home. I would love to hear some feedback from you. Thanks again for stopping by.
Merry Christmas and Happy 2011 to you and your family!!!

So beautiful! We love to eat dinner by candlelight as well during the month of December
ReplyDeleteErika, this is wonderful. It looks like a high end decorated room. I love it when we can prove that it does not take a lot of money to make your home truly beautiful. Anyone can do it with lots of cash, but a real challenge for little. Thanks for your inpiring blog. Keep up the good work. www.donnamadden.me
