6 Ways to Decorate Your Mantel
6 of 6
  • Create a dramatic statement with fun art in different scales. To create more interest, add a vase with extra tall flowers that compliment the colors in the room. Here, the purple flowers look great against the light pink artwork and grey walls. (image)

  • To give the illusion of a larger room, center a large mirror over the mantel. Balance it out with pretty flower arrangements, knick-knacks, and candles. (image)

  • Go bold and funky. Don’t be afraid to use statement artwork in bright colors to show off your mantel! We love this mixture of colors and how the fun gold pig can be a great talking piece, too. (image)

  • If you prefer a more clean and simple look, try using one focal piece. We love this gold starburst mirror anchored by two simple white birds. (image)

  • If you’re an art lover, why not create a gallery wall over your mantel? It’s a great way to give focus to your art and your mantel during the upcoming holiday season. Added bonus: paint your fireplace a fun bold color! (image)

  • Go for a rustic, natural look with a wooden mirror and tall greenery. If you have a non-working fireplace, add character with a stack of your books. (image)
