Vintage Finds for March on the Mantel

 Hi Friends,

It's March and time to change up the décor on the mantel. I have replaced the pinecone and little trees with a different color green.

A few of green ball jar, one I filled with vintage wooden spools.

The lime green vase was a thrift find last fall, I wasn't sure super happy with the colored bottom half.  Thought maybe I could wash off the red, orange, and purple at the bottom. I decided it is part of the glass vase, oh well still pretty cute artisan vase.

Some older brass candle sticks I have collected over the years center with the vintage window frame, over the fireplace.

A recent purchased framed fruit picture, I have past by this framed piece several times, not knowing how to incorporate it into my décor. 

Who knew it would be a great pieces for March décor?  

I also placed the little green creamer with a Japan stamp.  

My last vintage thrift haul I found the little white hen thinking it match another little white hen I found this summer, however as you can see they are not a like.

I love the way the mantel looks, I hope I gave you some inspiration to pull out all your green and decorate for Spring!

Thank you for stopping by to see what is going on, here at My Little Colorado Cottage.

March 2017 is Here!

Time to get the March Decor Up

Green, green, green, the temperature is warming up but we still have snow, so it is very hard to think spring, but I have pulled out the Saint Patrick's Day decorate you can see I have few items.

I was doing some deep spring cleaning and founds some decoration that I made quiet a few years ago,  felt shamrocks pip berry eucalyptus stems green candle and a cardboard shamrock.  I'll see if I can incorporate some of the items into this year march decor.

 I'm not real happy with the mantel, it looks so plain.

I made this shamrock garland this year and added prints from old post cards with clothespins.  I searched the house for anything green, brass, and white to use as decor pieces on the mantel.

As you can see I incorporated the felt shamrocks on a stick in the white vase which is a new thrift find.  This banner is new with the green medallions, but can't get it to hang right.

Here are a few more of the felt shamrocks on a stick, This needs something

Here is one of the Styrofoam balls I mod podge with green tissues paper and I stuck in the King Edward cigar box and added a couple of old post cards.

I guess I'm not feel'in it this year.

I use some more felt shamrock on a stick some old post cards and a cardboard shamrock with one of the medallion I made in a earlier tutorial.

This is it for 2017.

Have a wonderful day!
