Spring Mantel

Here is my mantel before I added a few things for spring.

Here I just added a few things I have been displaying for spring.

Just changing up some of the items on the mantel makes it ready for spring.  The post about how I made the lace plate is here.  Thanks for joining me today to view my mantel.

    It looks fabulous. Isn't it wonderful when you have such lovely things and you can just shop the house. Your bird cloche is fabulous. I am totally drooling. I would love for you to line this to Table Top Tuesday tomorrow. Hugs, Marty

    Hi I'm your newest follower. I love your blog! I especially love how the candles are melted instead of just placed brand new on the holders. I might have to try that. :)

    I love the pretty touches...birds are always nice for Spring! But what I love most is that your candles are burned down to different levels! How great that looks! WOW! I'm going to have to remember this! ♥

    Very pretty spring update. I think the butterfly and the little white flowers (which I have totally drawn a blank on the name) are the icing on the cake.
