Mantel Ideas For Christmas
Posted by HengesInsulation | December 8th, 2018
Do you need some mantel ideas for Christmas? Check out this article for some easy ideas to decorate your fireplace for the holidays!
DECORATE ABOVE THE MANTEL
Try adding a wreath that’s pre-lit to the space above the mantel. If there’s a mirror in that space, try hanging the wreath on the front of it for a more layered look.
ADD GARLAND
The quickest way to add some holiday cheer is to use some garland (use fresh garland or faux). You can add faux berries, pine cones or mini ornaments. Add the finishing touch with some lights!
ADD STOCKINGS
Add the stockings to complete your festive look. Don’t forget to add stocking holders, which also double as decorative elements. If you don’t want to hang stocking try hanging a banner!
