Kellie is having a party ... and while you are visiting, you HAVE to see her craft room!!
WOW!
In the beginning there was a lone black mirror over the fireplace
Then there were shutters from CTS that I bought last year on clearance for 1.00 each
Then came the apothecary jar bottom that I bought at Aldi for $7.00
The eggs that I made from Dollar Tree supplies came next with a large stick... from my yard!
Another pic...
Then came the filigree candle sticks and my grams Easter Greetings blocks!
Gram had these seasonal blocks for as long as I can remember... when she went to the nursing home they came with her... when she passed away, I was honored to get these.
A closer view of the sign and some hippy chicks!
I added our initial and I hot glued some faux forsythia to the branches
I added the candles which I will have a tutorial on soon... and some blue check ribbon
I am LOVING my mantle!!!
It is bright and cheery and it is totally me!!

CUTE CUTE CUTE!
ReplyDeleteLove the forsythia!
I usually put my faux forsythia in a basket on the front door- I think it needs to come inside because I can't see it if it's outside :)
I have shutters on my mantle, too!
The chicks are darling!
Thanks for sharing your mantle.
Blessings on your day!
I adore those yellow shutters! They're so happy and the absolute embodiment of spring!
