Christmas Mantel Garland - How To Decorate Your Mantel For Christmas

With a gold & smokey blue color scheme, this mantel garland coordinates nicely with the "Victorian Christmas Tree." To continue with the elegant theme, an antique mantel clock, taper candle holders, glass jars, & a kerosene lamp decorate the mantel. Keeping these decorations season-neutral lets the garland shine!
I used thrift-store pine garlands wrapped together for the base garland. This makes a nice inexpensive base to tuck floral picks in. I also used some of the same ribbon you saw in the "Victorian Christmas Tree" video on the mantel (since they are in the same room).

I keep coming back to this Garland.What I do like about it is not just the color scheme and the richness but the proportions which is so important.I see lots of people have odd looking garlands either too skinny and empty or too much,over the top.This one is perfect for this room and this fireplace.Very good taste!

[@soniallanos3701]

[@barbaraduffy7418]

Lovely mantel really pretty. Tip: Connect your extension cord at the top of the mantel ( bulky plug part) then use removable command hooks and smooth the cord flat against the mantel, the cord will not stick out and disappear.
