2018 Fall Mantel | How To Decorate A Mantel

Welcome to my 2018 Fall Mantel Decorate with me! Today I'm showing you how I achieved this year's mantel, step-by-step. I repurposed last year's Pier 1 and Michael's garlands to create a beautiful custom piece, using decor from Pottery Barn, Hobby Lobby, Homegoods and more. I hope you love it! Happy Fall, y'all!

Watching your videos is always a joy!!!

[@shondalee5658]

The color combination is so pretty. I like how you used what you already had to make something totally different and beautiful. Thanks for sharing your ideas.

[@Lifestylewithmg]

Thank you Shonda!💐💖

[@comesitunderthetrees]

This was so warming, and the music selection was perfect. Fall has always been my favorite season! Something so beautiful and sensual about it. This mantel decor is beautiful and high end looking! You sure have an eye you for lady!

[@Lifestylewithmg]

A✨Mellion✨thank yous!💖

[@charlotteduran9671]

[@Lifestylewithmg]

Thank you Charlotte...it honestly does relax me to be creative...Im glad you enjoyed the video 💐

[@mylouisianahome9751]

This is lovely. Your whole home is simply beautiful.

[@DH-qz2so]

Wowzers! Totally gorg....just my style and colors....love it! When we built my mantel, I managed to get 2 wall outlets just above where the mantel sits...one on each end..so now I can use plug in mini lights...so convenient!

[@398jeffersd]

The flicker candles gave me an idea. Thanks!🕯

[@inspiredby8365]

This is easily one of the best fall mantel I have seen. Your instructions are very easy to follow.tfs

[@Lifestylewithmg]

WOW! Thank you SO MUCH! This comment“filled my cup”...💖💖💖💖

[@domixniquee]

Very true! I thought the same!

[@mejustme479]

Love that you reuse your stuff from last year! 🍃🍂🍁🍃 Looks so thick & Lush! LOVE IT 💖

[@Lifestylewithmg]

It was REALLY HARD not to buy something new, but it looks totally different, right? Thanks for watching 🍂🍁💖

[@mejustme479]

The Mellionaire House Yes, Completely different. 💖 I like that you reused, because all the other channels always buy new, new, new. But reusing perfectly fine items and adding a few new or extra pieces gives texture & color giving it a whole new look. I love you for that! 💖🍃🍁🍂🍃💖 Keep up the great work 💖

[@lem4100]

The mantel is beautiful. Everyone loves Fall but, Fall to me just means that winter is right around the corner. I live in Maine. Rough, long winters here! Look forward to you next video

[@Lifestylewithmg]

💐💐💐

[@toniajaneveazeycassetta7941]

Absolutely Gorgeous garland and mantelscape!

[@prenee70]

Warm, cozy, and beautiful!

[@Lifestylewithmg]

Thank you Pamela!🍁🍂✨

[@Monica1joy]

I love the fall too. I live in Texas, so our weather is similar to yours in Florida. The fall is usually not very cold, just cooler. Cooler is so nice after the very warm summers. Beautiful decorations.

[@Lifestylewithmg]

Yessss...we will finally be able to open the windows and let in a little fresh air!🙌🏽😋🍁🍂

[@mayramoore6313]

monica joy I too live in Texas and long for cooler weather and I'm guilty of decorating a little early but it makes me happy. Hasta Luego girlfriends!!

[@gillianforeman6272]

OMG! I love you so much. You're my friend in my head. Beautiful decor. How is it possible that you and you husband are aging backwards? You look amazing.

[@Lifestylewithmg]

This mad me smile so big!😁😁 HE is DEFINITELY aging backwards...me...depends on how much sleep I got the night before☺️ Regardless, thank you for the sweet compliment...made my day💖

[@lindacurtis589]

A new subscriber here. Love your instructions, the fact that you reuse decor and have a gift to make your home beautiful!

[@sebastianblaeck2492]

Just found out about this site today. Love the mantel. Fall is my favorite time of year as well. The mantel turned out beautifully.

[@Lifestylewithmg]

Thank you Sebastian!💖

[@ilovebeinagirl]

I'm not mad at you for starting early. Fall is also my favorite time of year!

[@Lifestylewithmg]

😁🍁🍂

[@marybetht6983]

I am so glad I found this we literally have the exact same fireplace with bookshelf's on the side (even the same stone) I don't have too much room between the mantle and the TV so I have been struggling with what I will do this year! This is absolutely gorgeous!

[@Lifestylewithmg]

Well how cool is that?! 💖✨

[@sisandamrali9080]

I just cannot get over your home though!!! it too gorgeous, thank you for sharing it with us

[@Lifestylewithmg]

Thank you for watching 💖💐

[@tanesihaherisejohnson6288]

Beautiful great work and I love the background soft instrumentation playing.

[@marciamorris6626]

Another amazing garland. Love the blue accents you put in . I love that you promised not to by a lot more fall decorations . I tell myself that every year ! How do you make that work ? Please tell me I ,need a twelve step program for decoration addiction. I keep buying but my storage space doesn’t get any bigger. Do you ever get rid of anything and how do you decide what to let go ? So glad to know you are a Noles fan . I should have realized that at once ! The signs were all there your creativity , elegance , intelligence , and graciousness . I was just too overwhelmed by your creations to connect the dots . Go Noles ! We are struggling a bit this year but I have no doubt we will be back on top as soon as Coach Taggert has a chance to clean up the mess left by his predecessor . Blessings and Peace 🙏🏻

[@shienebarnes2484]

Greeting Melanie! I'm glad that your channel popped up this AM. I'm loving your creative Fall Garland mantel of a classy display. I also appreciate your music choice of light instrumental Jazz vibes in the background is a class touch. You have a new fan from New York who will be viewing your creative work w/pleasure!! Continue creating!!

[@Lifestylewithmg]

Yay!! So glad you enjoyed it Marcia!😁🙌🏽💖

[@Sarah.0304]

Oh it’s so beautiful Melanie! I am more of a typical warm tone for the fall seasons, but I’m working my way into the more trendy side of things 😂. My mother in law gave me these beautiful teal blue vintage vases last year for part of my Christmas gift, so I’ve been trying to incorporate them into my design schemes this year. I’ve bought quite a few blue, teal and cream colored pumpkins and floral the past few weeks to add into my existing fall decor.

[@Lifestylewithmg]

Oooooh I bet that will be SO pretty!😋💙

[@brandygee9954]

That came out gorgeous😍. You should really have your own show.

[@Lifestylewithmg]

Aweeeeee, SHUCKS! You made my day!🙌🏽😁💖

[@deebeeford5665]

Beautiful fireplace mantel, it has inspired me to do the same for my fireplace mantel.tfs

[@karmathephoenix2474]

I'm so eagerly anticipating fall to arrive and the cool weather that comes with it. Your garland is so pretty and the blue feathers added more grandeur and excitement to your mantle, even, to the point of changing one's mood. The feathers were a smart choice and great color too. I have a mantle but not as grand as yours. My garland will be a lot thinner but pretty indeed. Thank you, you are just as inspiring as your pumpkins and cherries. :))) Go Palm Coast!

[@Lifestylewithmg]

What a sweet comment...thank you!🙌🏽🍁🍂
