Spring Mantel in March

Hi Friends,

Welcome to another how I decorated my mantel this year for Spring




I gathered some of my green bottles added a little yellow daffodils, white pip berries,  and a couple of diy's and voila' my spring mantel for 2020.

Green checked banner, adds a nice farmhouse feel to the old window frame on the mantel. 


I start with the the festive paper medallion banner I added a black and white check homespun garland I made last spring give a nice country feel, green moss garden balls I also made last spring 
 
A free St. Patrick's holiday print from


A few of my brass candle sticks, vintage postcard prints from 


A new diy wreath project this year


This year I brought into my décor a few felt  stemmed shamrocks I made a few years ago.


a cleaned up thrifted mirror and a few felt farmhouse shamrocks scattered around.
 



I am very pleased how adding a little moss and some of my DIY's came together. What do you think?

Thank you so much for stopping by to check out my Spring Mantel.

Take care and God Bless, Vicki a Colorado Junkett

New Spring Farmhouse Wreath Using a Thrifted Wicker Paper Plate Holder

 


I painted the wooden letters with espresso brown acrylic paint from WalMart

using the I Love sign I painted the back with moss green acrylic paint 



I used Aleene's Tacky glue to attach the wooden letters.  Digging through my craft stash I found this galvanized Happy word I  of pulled off another sign purchased from Dollar Tree.
Using a chalk pen I outlined the letters in Spring and went around the edge of the moss green rectangle board.


The sign wasn't setting in place very well so using a glue gun and three jenga blocks



I did a simple bow with burlap ribbon and a little black rickrack



This project was very simple, but I think it turned out nice and I used items I already had in my craft stash.

Thank you for stopping by, come again to see what kind of project I'll be doing next.

God Bless You, Vicki a Colorado Junkett
