HALLOWEEN MANTLE

Posted by Lori~

Our 1939 house has an amazing wood burning fireplace (my favorite).  For some reason, I have never decided to decorate the mantle for the holiday season (of course I have thrown up the stockings, but that is just not the same).  There is always a first, and Halloween seemed to be perfect.

First up, I decided to create BOO frames.  I crashed my stash for photo mattes, painter's tape, and burlap.

I cut the burlap to fit.

I attached it using painter's tape.  This way I can re-use the burlap or the matte.

I created BOO letters on the computer and printed them off.

I also attached them using painter's tape!  PERFECTION!
I also added a few jars with clear beads and sticks from the yard.  

I am LOVING my Halloween mantle!  Total Cost:  FREE!
