I changed up my traditional mantle decor this year and went with a much simpler scheme with no red. The emphasis on the "no red" comes from me using red in everything. I love it like this though. The star was a black tin one that i got for 60% off at Joanne's. I painted it with a wash of gold and silver paint and then coated it with mica flakes. Some mercury glass and some greenery snipped from the yard (if I'm standing in my yard its fair game right?) and its done!
We use our fireplace most days and I love snuggling in front of a fire with my kiddos to read a book or listen to them play christmas songs on their ukeleles (yeah I said it-they're actually really good). :)
Happy Holidays!
