I am slooooooooooooowly making my way through my living and dining room remodel this winter. I was telling my mom yesterday that I was feeling overwhelmed with everything I have left to get done {ideally before Hal's 1st bday}. Her advice to me was to start with the smallest project first and move on from there. Good advice Mommulls :) So, today I tackled a small project...finishing my mantel styling. My colors for the remodel are coral, turquoise and grays and I have been collecting items here and there for a while and they are crammed in the empty rooms just waiting to shine. I gathered up the items I had in mind for the mantel and arranged, rearranged and arranged them again this morning. And here is the result...I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. I like clean, bright and simple and I think this fits the bill.
The Keep Calm print I ordered from Etsy.
The white frame/matting is from Target.
I have had the silver "J" forever. I think I got it at a store called Sugar Bakers in Omaha.
The coral leaf frame is a 5" x 7" from Target.
The gray chevron print I made myself. Another Pinterest project that was way more work than I thought it would be.
The large letter "J" I ordered from Joann Fabric. I then painted it turquoise {or more precisely "Jamaican Sea" in FolkArt brand acrylic paint}.
The small silver bird was a gift from my Mommulls. She bought it on a girls trip we took to Weston, MO a few years ago.
I have no idea where I got the ampersand!
If you like my mantel styling, feel free to pin it!
Ciao for now!
