christmas mantel

hi everyone..
this old mantel is a perfect place for christmas decorating & although the fireplace is a bit small for santa to fit through it's nice to imagine. we're loving hydrangeas here at the moment and some added greenery brings the room to life.

the burlap / hessian bunting is a quick & easy, no sew kind.

• measure one triangle to size and use as a template for the other pieces
• paint letters with white paint using a small paint brush
  
• add white braid to the top and secure to string with mini wooden pegs
• tie big white bows to the ends made with torn soft white fabric. i used an old sheet.

have a great week!
