Last week when I decorated the mantel for fall, I decided that I wanted something different from last year. I really like the combination of cobalt and orange, so I started poking around my stashes to see what I could come up with for this season. I pulled out some of my cobalt and white ware from a display cabinet and one of my favorite cobalt glass pieces (a housewarming gift when we moved here from one of my dearest friends).
The reflection in the mirror above the fireplace is distracting.
The vase looked empty at first, so I picked up some twigs in the backyard and added them. Then I stuck-in faux bittersweet, leaves and pumpkins to provide texture throughout.
I love the colors of autumn!
