HOLIDAY MANTEL IN COPPER AND GOLD

Whenever I change up a mantel for the holidays,  I try to use what's already there as a starting point.   This mantel already had the MCM gold mirror and the copper hurricanes with preserved boxwood spheres.  They directed the color choices.  I added a faux Norfolk pine garland, copper ornaments, and a trio of gold tree toppers.


 I purchased this faux Norfolk pine garland at Kirklands.  It is so realistic.  I used it on my stairway too.

I mixed three jeweled copper tree toppers with the pine garland.

These copper ornaments adorned my holiday tree many years ago.

COPPER ORNAMENTS

I love these houndstooth hurricanes.  Before the holiday decorating began they rested on a stack of books.

All I added to the mirror was a gold beaded garland.

MCM MIRROR WITH BEADED GARLAND

I have many chandeliers in my home.  This vintage pagoda pendant light is my favorite.   It creates the perfect reflection in the mirror.  I found the mirror and the Chinoiserie chandy on a vintage shopping trip with my Mom.  It's a very sentimental attachment.
