UncategorizedOur Spring Mantle April 20, 2012I know things have been a little sparse around here these last few weeks. I hope y’all have been doing well! I have been pretty preoccupied with something lately and I can’t wait to finally tell you what it is! I’ll have to wait until Monday, so check back then. In the meantime, I’ve been meaning to post about our spring mantle for the last week and each day has slipped by. I really wanted to lighten it up a lot from our winter mantle. Remember it? I loved all the books with my love of writing, but the dark colors looked heavy. Here’s what I turned to for spring… I wanted to keep the books, so I started by just turning them around. I remember seeing Emily from Jones Design Company do this and I love the neutral detail that it adds. My other springy detail was adding the color yellow and some floral prints (from Goodwill of course). I like how the yellow ties in with the rest of our room – I apparently love to use yellow! I’m loving the lightness of it and all the neutrals. It’s a nice change for spring. Have a great weekend, y’all! I’ll have some news on Monday 🙂
