Natural Fall Mantel

The fall is decor is going up little by little and by that what I really mean is my house is covered. I swear, once I start to hear football games on the TV throughout the house, it’s time to just embrace it. So far I’ve shared our fall porch, a DIY Fall Wreath, and now it’s time for my natural fall mantel.

Today, I’m also joining a really fun fall mantel hop, so be sure to keep scrolling and check out all of the other fall mantels below.

Natural Fall Mantel

Love this stone fireplace with all the fall colors. Create an elegant and natural fall mantel using neutral colors, pops of copper and natural fall textures. Love the pumpkin mantel display.

It’s funny looking back at fall mantels over the past few years and seeing how some things have changed and other things are still the same. I remember decorating our mantel for the very first time and being SO excited to even have a mantel to decorate! My first fall mantel was a lot more rustic and farmhouse and it’s been fun moving into more elegant and chic designs but also keeping things festive.

Create an elegant and natural fall mantel using neutral colors, pops of copper and natural fall textures. Love the pumpkin mantel display.

When it comes to decorating our mantel I am always a little limited because of the TV above it. But it is literally the only place for us to have a TV in our family room, so I have to make it work. I would LOVE to get one of those framed TV’s that look like a pieces of artwork when it is turned off. Umm yes please, I can dream!

Fall Blanket Ladder

Fall blanket ladder!

I got this cute blanket ladder for last year’s mantel and thought it was so cute, had to bring it back out. Blankets add so much texture to a space, especially in the fall.

Decorating Mantel With Pumpkins

Comments OUTDOOR for all the info on our backyard Comments OUTDOOR for all the info on our backyard furniture and decor! Unfortunately, when I get an idea I can’t stop until it’s done 😉. I got an itch to swap out our three chaise lounges for a large U-Shape sectional to create more seating and lounging poolside. I knew there was only one brand who could make this happen… I worked with @polywood to design a sectional that would be a complete custom fit for this little nook. I used the Braxton 6 Seat Sectional and added additional modular seats to get this look. I LOVE how it turned out! They can make anything happen! 

POLYWOOD outdoor furniture is made out of recycled plastics, making it durable in all weather climates. They also have a 20 year warranty.

POV: working with what you have and creating somet POV: working with what you have and creating something completely new! I kept all the original flooring, cabinets, backsplash and fixtures and did only cosmetic updates to update this space. I wanted to add more contrast, character, warmth and texture. By smoothing out the texture of the walls it instantly gave it an updated look, the new paint color added contrast, the wood ceiling added warmth and texture and all the antiques and vintage pieces gave it the charm. 🖤
