My mantle

We're temporarily renting an older home until we relocate again with my hubby's job. It's a good-sized home so we love it BUT it's older and needs a lot of touch-ups and a lot of great decor! I painted this entire fireplace white for a fresh and clean look. And then here's my mantle for a great "after" look. I love green and black together!  And I made this temple pic for $45 with this Utah company when we used to live there. Sweet!

I love these letters tied together and decoupaged of our family name.  It's just thin wood, holes drilled on all four corners, tied together with thin satin ribbon, decoupaged with scrapbook paper, sponged with the ink around the edges, and then large vinyl letters in different fonts....easy!
