Yes, I'm back to that family room mantel that I never seem to get quite right. I have to say though that while it gives me fits, it also pushes to me tackle it one more time. It remained empty after Christmas, but I seemed to have accumulated quite a few nature-related items
and started playing with them until I came up with this.
It's a mix of antlers, turtle shells, glass floats from Pottery Barn,
and framed book plates, with some covered demijohns, vintage books,
and an iron grate for a back drop.

I decided that I like to photograph snippets of arrangements. This mantel was no exception.
Enjoy my vignette fragments.
Do you like to use nature in your decor?

Kathy, this is fabulous!! Love that iron grate. Oh why, oh why did I sell mine? You give me so many ideas and inspiration.

I use natural items in my decor all the time--stuff I gather...turkey, bird, and pheasant feathers, bird nests that fall, wasp nests, rocks, shells, etc. I am jealous of all your turtle shells...where have you found them? Love the demijohns and the book plates in your mantel arrangement...
