mantle

This is only my second Christmas to decorate a mantle. It is quite a daunting task. For a week or so this December it just existed. Then the other night my neighbors were going to get their Christmas tree. I asked if they would mind getting me some tree clippings. And this is the result.
I just added the tree clippings to my grapevine wreath from the Fall. I have had the red and gold ribbon for probably 6 years and the silver snowflake ornaments for probably 8 years. I got the nativity scenes half off last year at hobby lobby. I love reusing what I already have!
