Summer Mantle

Time for a season change on the mantle.  Since I’m in the mood for the beach I freshened up the look with shells and glass. 

We have the lovely TV opening right in the middle of our mantle so I have to limit what can be done here to keep it from looking too busy.  Even with the TV there I still like dressing up the mantle a bit. 

 

This is the before picture, never really changed my winter set up through the spring.  Notice the heart from Valentines Day!  Then I added the bunny before Easter.  Sad that I’m just changing this now.

Love these pink and green sea urchins I picked up in Nags Head, they really go nice with the colors in my living room
