Our Christmas Mantel

Our Christmas Mantel

I love this time of year and decorating for the holidays just makes me squeal with happy.Our home is filled with Christmas! Decorating does take me a bit longer than it used to. But, I enjoy it sooo much. When it’s time to decorate I always start with the mantel. Since I can’t have you all over for a cup of something yummy and invite you in for a visit. I thought I would take a few photos and share our mantel with you today.Christmas mantel

No fancy photos just a few snaps to share ๐Ÿ™‚

christmas mantel Do you remember when I was trying to figure out what to put above the mantel? If you missed the post you can read it here. My sweet hubby bought this beautiful mirror and it fits the mantel perfectly. Just like it has been there all along.

I wrapped some candles with a bit ofย  leftover holiday ribbon. It adds a little something extra.

Our Stockings are hung and our sweet Izzy has one too. I just love the paw print on it ๐Ÿ™‚

So there it is, our Christmas mantel.ย  I wish I could have you over for a cup of tea and we could light the fire and chat.

I look forward to sharing the rest of the house with you next week.

What do you decorate first?

    So beautiful, Katherine. Lovely like you. Have a Merry Christmas and all the best to your family in the new year. I have yet to do much in decorations. The lights are on the trees outside and a cedar wreath is on the front door. The other decorations will go up next week. It seems we put them up earlier and earlier every year. I remember as a kid, one Christmas, when Dad forgot to bring home a tree and had to go out and get one after the yard where they sold them was closed, Mom and I stayed up half the night decorating. It was Christmas Eve. That was so much fun. One of my most memorable Christmases.

      Thank you, I think so too. I didn’t have one for a long time. Then when we built the house and decided on a fireplace I was very excited about how to decorate it for the holidays. That was 8 years ago and I get just as excited every year. Hugs

    Hi Katy., I’m like you and just love decorating the house for Christmas! I love your mantel and particularly those golden reindeer. I have always wanted a mantelpiece at this time of the year, and this year I’ve got one for the first time! It looks lovely and I am so pleased with it. Ho! Ho! Ho!

      Sorry, I needed to piggyback my comment onto Thisisme’s in order to submit.

      Your “home for the holidays” is beautiful, Katie. Every picture would work well as a greeting card. I’m glad you remembered to hang a stocking for Izzy. As you might know, my dog Toto died this year at the age of 14. I miss her every day, especially during the holidays.

      Merry Christmas and happy new year, Katie!

    That’s so pretty!! I love mantles & seeing them decorated :)) Very lovely. I usually start with my front door & hang the wreath and other bits around the door and then I begin inside, but it always starts with my door ๐Ÿ™‚ This looks wonderful. Happy Christmas doll, I hope you have a great weekend Xxx

    Hi Katherine,
    this is just breath takingly beautiful and must have taken you hours. It makes me feel guilty that I have not started decorating yet, but am so busy doing orders, that I just do not get a chance.
    Maybe I should go on Christmas break, but I must get the orders out first.
    Thank you for visiting my blog and for the follow.
    I hope that you have a fantastic day.
    Love and best wishes.
    Anne
