Simple Modern Fall Mantel

Fall is making it’s way into our home! Yesterday I showed you how I styled our kitchen shelves for fall by adding a few simple touches. Today, we are moving into the living room! I really enjoyed playing around with adding subtle touches of fall to our mantel. This is the first fall with our fireplace makeover completely finished! I put together this simple modern fall mantel with a few items.

Last fall, I had just finished up the big fireplace makeover with the german schmear technique. But I still had big TV over the mantel! We eventually moved it over to the wall and replaced it with this gorgeous modern mirror. Having this space complete for fall decor this year was icing on the cake.

To bring some elements of fall into this space, I added a few earth tone branches with deep copper tones. Sometimes it just a little texture.

On the opposite size, I added one simple leather pumpkin! I stumbled upon these last year and haven’t been able to find them again, I’m so bummed I can’t link the exact ones for you. But I found these similar ones you may like!

Current snap shot of our main family room! We will Current snap shot of our main family room! We will be starting phase 1 in here later this year and I wanted to capture it as it stands now. Almost everything in here was either brought from our Washington home 3 years ago or bought second hand! Piece by piece this room has become a cozy space for our family over the last 3 years. The new stairs are staying and will work into the new design, I love them so much.

It was tricky. But I’m glad we kept going because the look is everything we envisioned and exactly what my son wanted. I still have lots more to do in here, it’s not even close to being finished. But I’m sure loving the dramatic before and after so far. Linking all sources.

I’ve been looking for the perfect accent chairs I’ve been looking for the perfect accent chairs for our family room for years! Any time we have guests over, or our whole family wants to hang out together, it always feels like we could use a few more seats to spread out and get comfy. I have had my eye on these gorgeous Vail accent chairs from @denvermodern and they didn’t disappoint. The leather is soft and high quality, they are wide and comfortable and the brass accents are chef’s kiss. They are perfection.
