Spring Mantel Printables

I am ready for a change on the mantel. I have had a coastal theme for quite a while. I  found these lovely hammered rose copper picture frames at our local Michaels Craft Store. I  was thinking I could add  Spring inspired printables to the frames instead of photographs. I always share my printables with you so you can download them too.

I have this recurring frustration when I decorate the mantel. I like the mirror. But, I just don’t like it enough to make it the focal point. I know the design standards advise us to have a focal piece and of course, balance is important too.I am not confident about my mantel twins ( each side matches the other.)

The fireplace is rarely used. If it was used more often I would do something simple on the mantel and shift focus to the warmth and comfort a fireplace provides.

I have been following Emily Henderson’s blog, “Style by Emily Henderson” and she has a great video for mantel styling  HERE   Meanwhile I will keep  rearranging and trying different things until I get the Spring mantel finished. I will share the completed look soon. Do you have a mantel?

If you don’t have a mantel, a large shelf, sideboard or  buffet  is a wonderful way to add seasonal style.

I enjoyed creating these Spring printables for you. I hope you can find some creative ways to use them. Maybe on your mantel. Please do not copy, sell or claim as your own.

This Emily Dickinson Poem is a lovely way to fill an empty picture frame.
