Our mantle...

...nothing fancy - it just kind of matches the tree in the den.
 
 
I kept up my old window frame with my natural wood wreath I bought at Home Goods...
 
 
 Of course, I used burlap ribbon, some rustic snowflakes, balls, greenery...
 
 
 ...a pretty textured ribbon..
 
 
 ...some more peacock feathers and a few shiney things...
 
 
 At night by the fireplace - it is just now getting cool enough to use it.  I'm excited about having a first snowfall in our new home - maybe this year - fingers crossed.
 
 
Rounding out this room is my "PEACE" wreath.  I love this word - I so wish we could have it everywhere - in our world and in every heart.
 
 
And lastly,  a bit of Joy to the World by the door.
 
 
The Christmas countdown is ON!  Have fun wrapping up all the final details!  Eat lots of Christmas cookies - talk to you soon!
