Mantle Tweaking

So I found myself all inspired after scouring through all my latest decorating magazines, books, (and especially the new APP magazine......a big "Congratulations" to the APP staff on doing such a great job for their first issue)!

While looking around the house, trying to decide where to place some treasures that I didn't like at a certain spot, I decided to group my very small collection of pewter together. I had it all in a general area together, but it wasn't very noticeable, and like I have seen in all those pictures; pewter needs to be showcased!

And why not on my fireplace mantle? Besides, it was time for a change there....



I really like my natural flower arrangements there, but it did need a lift. So, I tried this....



And I must say that I think it will stay....





.....for awhile! ;)

  2. Love the whole thing, the stone fireplace, the beautiful wood mantle, and what better place to put pewter than on the mantle! Great job. I have to admit that I'm a little jealous as I don't have a fireplace and would love one!

  5. Tarrah, your mantle is beautiful, especially since you added the pewter to the florals already there!
    Have a wonderful day!
