fall mantel // simple gold

 

 

Good Morning!  I hope your week is off to a lovely start!  I finally got my mantel looking a little more like Fall.  Well, Kinda :)  This year I changed things up a bit and decided to go with a simple, gold Fall mantel.  I love the traditional Fall colors too, but when I found the glittery, gold pumpkin and gold hooter, I decide to just go for the gold ;)  They were definitely the starting pieces for the rest of the mantel.

 

 

 

I couldn't find a banner that I really liked so I decided to make one.  I used scrapbook paper, gold glittery letters and gold ribbon, all which I picked up at Michael's.  The pumpkin is also from Michael's and the hooter is from Target.

 

 

This framed Fall watercolor print was my final addition to this mantel.  Grant and I picked up this print when we visited Asheville, NC in the Fall a few years ago.  It is a beautiful, blend of soft Autumn colors and definitely reminds of our amazing trip. 

 

And you may or may have not noticed, but I even painted my mirror gold.  The dark brown color just wasn't working for me anyone.  Figured just as easy as it became gold, it could become another color again, right :)

 

This is definitely a bit different from my Fall mantel last year, but it's fun to switch things up a bit.  So what about you...are you a traditional Fall color person (which I love too) or do you like to jazz it up a bit?

 

Happy Fall!  Have an amazing day!!
