    I saw your fall mantel design Lookie at what I did. And fell in love with it. Can you tell me where you purchased the lamp on the mantel. Thank you!

    Not sure how I missed this post, but WOW!!! Thanks so much for featuring my mantel and printable!! I’m so excited to be featured among so many talented ladies!!!

    I love the mantel ideas! They are so cute! I feel inspired to rev up my mantle now! Thank you!

    Wow! So much inspiration. I thought I’d decided to give the SAS Interiors mantel a go. But there are too many great ones to choose from. The simplicity of the Potpourri Halloween Tree Mantle and the whimsy of Lookie What I Did’s Halloween display are equally adorable.

    Okay.. Now I’m depressed that I don’t have a fireplace and mantle.. Unfortunately for me, in Florida they are few and far between. 🙁 Boo!

    I am LOVING this. I have tried a few different fall decor items on my mantle but cannot get it to look good. Now I wish I had like 10 fireplaces to decorate. 😉 I’m definitely going to use these ideas for my mantle this week! Thanks for posting!

    Thank you Jen for showing my mantel and giving me some inspiration from the others. There are a couple that I am pinning! Thank you!

    I bet Viv never thought her mantel would be featured…she has always wanted to KILL that thing. But it DOES look lovely! 🙂

    I do love them all, but I have to say I’m partial to June & Bear’s elegant vignette 🙂

  18. Amy @ Croquet & Cocktails says

    October 2, 2011 at 12:25 PM

    I love that at least two of these mantles are not mantles at all. It makes those of us who live a life devoid of such things hopeful that there can be pretty little scenes throughout the house!

    Lovely!

    • Jen says

      October 2, 2011 at 9:05 PM

      Yes, you don’t need a mantel to create a beautiful holiday vignette!
