My Fall Mantel using old books and clocks

Here's my fall mantel:


filled with lots of current loves.


a cake plate and cloche, old deconstructed books, and old clocks,




my bookpage wreath made last year that I updated the center with crepe paper and a paper clock cut out, and centered on an old chalkboard,


and old white urns.





I like the mix of neutrals, and think this will transition well into Halloween.


keep primping,


The Lettered Cottage

P.S. My linky party is still open--go here to link up.










P.P.S. Thanks to everyone who sent me a Pinterest Invite!  I finally figured it out, and am now happily pinning away. You can check my sidebar to follow me on Pinterest.

my spring mantel

ok, so here's my spring mantel--it has a little bit of everything I'm lovin' right now: chalkboards, urns, a cake plate,
a little bit of green, and burlap,
white frames, and pots,

a white plate with my lucky number '6', an old architectual element, and a bookpage wreath I made about a year ago.
I love the muted colors of white, cream and rust, with a touch of black and green.

I'm linking up to Layla's spring mantel party over at The Lettered Cottage.
