Happy Monday y’all I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving break! We are trying to get back in the swing of things here, but I am thrilled I got the Christmas mantel done over the weekend to share with you! I went green and gold this year, and simple, and love it. :)
All I used was some fresh garland from a local nursery, doubled up so it’s more full, and sprinkled in a few ornaments. The same ones that will go on our tree.
The stockings are the ones from Tiny Prints that I posted about and love them!
And those of you that didn’t like my moss wreath, shame on you. ;)
Maybe you’ll like it better with the fancy deer head. :) If not, that’s ok!
Here’s a few more photos for you.
And that’s a wrap!
I can’t wait to show you some more Christmas decor coming soon, along with a holiday home tour! I have lots to do this week! :)
How’s your holiday decorating coming along? We at least got the tree up, but it’s not dressed yet.

Love the green and gold combo! Are fresh garlands easy to maintain? I always worry that they’ll dry out as the month goes by.
Decorchick! says
Thanks Nelly. Yes all I have done in years past is just spritz them daily or every few days with water. They do dry out over time of course, but I can get a good 3-4 weeks out of them usually.

I love the moss wreath ! I have the same question as the above reader regarding the beautiful greens. How do you maintain during the season and do you find one type of greenery holds up better (and longer) than another ? I just love the way they look !
Decorchick! says
This garland is a mix of cedar and a few others. I just spritz them daily or every few days with water and they will stay ok at least until Christmas!

Beautiful work! I love the simplicity of the green and the gold. And I find myself especially enjoying the dear with the golden, glitter antlers…it’s just so fun! It makes me extremely excited for Christmas. I just put up my mini Christmas tree yesterday, as I live in a little apartment I don’t have room for much more, but I really am enjoying it!
