Patriotic Mantel

I was finally able to work on our patriotic mantel today. Up went the new wall hanging and out came the red, white and blue decorations.


You may recall my mentioning the wall hanging several weeks ago when we made this purchase at Cracker Barrel. We liked it so much that we decided to get it for an early anniversary gift and, ironically, it was hung this morning (today is our anniversary).
This jar needs some adjusting. I am envisioning the addition of some red and blue, so I will be working on that!

A faux fern, an eagle and cloche rounded out this end of the mantel. I "puffed" some patriotic fabric in the cloche for a little color.


I have more decorating to do, but this is a good start!

Have a good evening!
