Valentine Mantel

I finally finished my Valentines mantel, Holla!!(insert Missy Elliot voice). Speaking of which, how freaking AWESOME was it that Missy Elliot was part of the halftime show for the Superbowl?! I still can’t get over it!

Anyhow, here it is!

This year I’m loving the whites, golds and soft pinks.

Small changes, I put the clear jar holding the arrows into a white tin I found at IKEA ages ago to tie it in with the doily looking tins on the other side. I spray painted some deer and moose antlers a couple of years ago and then accented them with gold and I find that I’m using them in our everyday decor more than I ever thought I would. I moved the pink frame from the window mantel over and then added in the bird candle holder that I found at Wal-Mart last week. I used my gold Sharpie to color the bird on top to make it pop a bit. Can you tell I like gold?

We had a home day today, so as the kids did some coloring I managed to make this LOVE bunting – I’ll post the tutorial later on.

Cute, right?!
