Holiday Mantel
I just redecorated our bedroom mantel for our stockings. Our holiday mantel is rustic and simple with old tools displayed with Christmas greens and lights.
Oh, if you’re new here and wondering about that mantel…you can read about how I made our faux {fake} mantel outta wood scraps.
I love, love, love this gear of fly wheel or whatever that rusty star thingy is. The glass insulators are simple sitting over lights.
Those old planers are so structural and beautiful.
This old wood clamp has even wood for the screws. Love to use it to frame something special. 🙂
The other end has a hand drill, and rusty “J” for Jeanette, a small rusty “C” clamp for Chaney. Hum I just thought about that. The “C” clamp was dad’s.
The stockings were hung by the chimney with nails. Don’t you just love that little truck full of Christmas trees and a wreath on the front hood?
Heh, heh, to read more of my version of T’was the Night Before Christmas and see the rest of our holiday home read 12 Days of Christmas Home Tour.
Warning though, I’m not a poet!
Are your stockings hung yet?
