{fall mantel is done!}

Our fall mantel is finally decorated!

This was the last spot in the house to get the autumn treatment, and I'm SO excited about how it turned out. I shopped the house for everything, even the yarn wreath that I made {click here for the tutorial!}


I already had the DIY chalkboard and milk glass vases on display. To those I added a framed fall photo that I stole from our bedroom, a faux pumpkin, and some fall colored berries...


and the centerpiece, my yarn wreath!


A little love note to my favorite season on the chalkboard finished it off...


Next to our entryway, this is definitely my favorite fall spot in the house.

I'll share the simple details on how I made the wreath in my next post. Hope you are having a wonderful fall weekend!

Linking up with Kevin and Layla at The Lettered Cottage...

Gorgeous! Love the contrast between the colors of the wreath and the crispness of the milk glass.

I love it!! Between the colors and the yarn wreath, it just feels like fall! I found you through Chic & Crafty Thursdays.

Oh, I am in love with the yarn wreaths I've been seeing and this one is so cute and cozy. I think the mantel is just right...not too much, but enough to make you want to sit and soak everything in. Fantastic :)
