Over the last week I have shared a couple projects that I had made for my spring mantle. I was totally slacking and still at the end of February had my Valentines Day Paint Chip Banner hanging on the mantle (embarrassing!), so I knew it was time to get into gear. Last weekend was full of craft store trips, an Ikea trip, crafting, and putting together the spring mantle. This post is mostly picture heavy, because I don't have much to say about it, other than I love it's simplicity and colorfulness.
I shared this with you last week, and it hangs from the mantle
I made 2 of these little guys, and they sit on opposite ends of the mantle
So here it is all put together!
...and a closer look
I picked up 2 of these milk bottle vases from Ikea. The taller one was only $2.99, and the smaller on the right side of the mantle was $1.99! I dressed them up by hot gluing a strip of burlap ribbon around the bottle, and putting some green floral decor (also from Ikea) into them.
I love these little chick eggs! They were in the $1 section at Target and came 2 to a pack!
That's it! Happy Spring!
