Easily Shoppable Styled Holiday Mantels
When I was putting together our holiday mantel it was a little more difficult than I imagined. The things you own and put on display are, in some ways, a reflection of who you are. I spent a few days shopping around at different stores trying to find the perfect pieces that felt like not only me but my family, too! As I did my research I found lots of beautiful pieces that I wanted to share. I put together a few complete styled holiday mantels. Hopefully one or a few of these resonates well with you and will help you decorate a little more efficiently this holiday season! Below are photos of our own mantel, and the first collage is where you can shop our mantel! I wanted to keep things simple, classic, and slightly feminine, lol. Gotta please my boys but I gotta please myself too, right?? Enjoy!
Looking at the mantel as a whole here, do you think tiny little fairy lights would make these trees even better? Maybe just the two large ones? Please let me know your opinion in the comments, I'm torn! I've also thought about adding a few decorative (and possibly scented) pinecones scattered around the mantel- I'd love your thoughts on that idea too!
Our Christmas Mantel
I couldn't find the exact large flower-ish taper candle holder that's in the middle, so I linked a very similar option from the same place (Target!).
tall trees - short trees - pinecones - set of three caper candle holders - flower candle holder - knit stockings - mini strand lights for the trees
Warm and Cozy Mantel
candle set - pre-lit garland - gold bead garland - forest green/faux fur stockings - large gold candle holders
White Christmas
Whimsicle/Foral
wreath - bottle trees - pinecones - white houses (small, medium, large) - floral garland - stockings
Okay now that I've finally finished these...it was way more work than I thought! No regrets! I feel like I created a mantel for so many different types of people and decor styles and honestly I'd decorate my own home with any of them. I feel myself leaning more towards colorful and whimsicle as the years go on. I used to hate colored Christmas lights with a passion but recently I've been trying to find ways to incorporate them in our home! I could definitely see myself using those Anthropologie red, pink, and white monogrammed stockings- LOVE.
I really can't get enough of Christmas decor so if you want advice or anything while you're decorating your own home please don't hesitate to reach out! The best/most efficient way to reach me is through my Instagram DM's! (elizabetht.taylor) Creating this little post made me even more excited to put up our tree! One of my favorite things I do each year is add a new ornament (or two) to the tree! I feel like my style changes ever so slightly every single year so our tree is never exactly the same two years in a row (like I said, slowly leaning towards colorful holiday decor). Can't wait to report with our decorated tree this year!
Thank you for reading!
