Rustic Farmhouse Styled Mantel for July




Hello Friends,

Today, I'm styling my mantel with items I have had a long time, some recent thrifted treasures, a bit of Spanish moss, floral, home spun cotton scraps and a few DIY's.

Here on the mantel are a few thrifted vintage bottles with a little floral, I added a vintage Sir Walter Raleigh tobacco tin with floral and a small doily with red crochet edges.

 The assortment of star are a diy and the little wooden fire crackers in the terra cotta pot were part of a garland I thrift last summer.

The framed hen picture is a gift from my oldest daughter. I'm loving it so much I hung it on the vintage window frame over the fire place.

Here on the mantel are a better view of two of the vintage bottles with homespun tied around the neck of the bottle and some floral.  

Also, a couple of the vintage hens that I'm always adding to any vignette.  Oh did you notice another diy? the USA wood block.



I think it started last year but I'm adding black & white check banner and floral moss to my vignettes, I really like that added touch.

This wicker star basket I thrifted a few years ago from my local thrift store I just added some floral a little bit of Spanish moss pip berries and a couple of boxes of sparklers, a diy block of wood with the word pride, the little vintage liberty bell was given to me by my late grandfather, some vintage wooden kids blocks to spell out USA, and a vintage atlas canning jar with some homespun added to the neck of the jar.



I did a little juggling items around for better placement. 



I think the vintage rooster under the framed picture looks nice.


Thank you stopping by today. I am really liking how the mantel is looking this year, it make me smile.

God Bless America!
