It feels like summer more every day. Last week, I shared our summer entry way and today I’m chatting about our neutral summer mantel with a little coastal flare. Before I dive in, if you are visiting from The Idea Room, so happy to have you over here. I just love Amy’s patriotic mantel! So perfect for the upcoming holiday.
Neutral Summer Mantel
I wanted to do something light and airy this year for summer. I didn’t really decorate last summer, so I wanted at least something up there this year! I love using greenery, it creates such a fresh feeling in the space and it’s something that’s so easy to keep up! Just grab a few clippings from outside and you are good to go :)
Summer Decor For Your Mantel
Since i’m always limited with what I can put under the TV, I just added some simple drift wood garland under it. It added a little bit of the coastal feel.
This beautiful botanical pillow from Linen and Ivory was one of my inspiration pieces when putting together the mantel. I love the neutral tones but also the sweet pops of green.

I look forward to sharing more of our summer home tour with you throughout the month!

June 12, 2017 at 6:10 amI love it! I like that your fireplace has a ledge to sit on. That is how ours was growing up :) Plus it gives you more room to decorate!

August 15, 2017 at 12:24 pmHi Taryn,
I was wondering if you could tell me what stone you used for your fireplace, I love it!

August 6, 2018 at 11:16 amHi Taryn! I came across your blog via a Pinterest photo of your fireplace. I just love the look of stone and wood. Could you tell me the dimensions of you’re hearth? IT seems higher than a standard 6-8 inches and deeper than 10 inches. I attempting to convert a blank wall into a fireplace wall to achieve my dream of having a mantel. Haha

December 1, 2018 at 12:49 pmBeautifully done! Can I ask you the depth of your mantle? How much space do you have to decorate on? Also how thick is the mantle?
Thanks!!
