Snowflake and Mercury Glass Christmas Mantel

Christmas decorating is in full force here! ย We’ve almost completed the outside {one deer left to plug in!} and I worked on the inside over the weekend.
As always, I started with our fireplace mantel in the family room. ย I love changing this over to a Christmas mantel.
This year, I went with a combination of mercury glass, pine cones and snowflakes. ย I moved my new mirror onto the mantle and used it as a starting point. ย Then, I added the pine cone garland.
Mercury glass vases, candle holders and animals were added next. I really love the hive texture on the large vase.
To keep with the natural vibe of the pine cones, I added gilded wood pieces to a small glass vase.
The little clips are actually stocking holders but those haven’t been unpacked quite yet ๐ ย The last addition was the little snowflake clings to the mirror for a fun touch.
It is definitely starting to look like Christmas around here!

It all looks fabulous to me! Nice job!
Very elegant look, so sparkly yet somehow understated, lovely ๐
Very sparkly & pretty!
Love this!
I love the colors, I spy a cute little owl tucked in there!
The mercury glass against the textures of the cones really makes this mantel special.
It ‘s such an elegant mantel!
Wow, I love it! Great colors, and that pinecone garland is pretty! Thanks for sharing at The Fun In Functional!
Gorgeous! Just wanted to let you know that I am featuring this post tomorrow in my Christmas Projects Round Up!
