Blending the Old with the New

My new decoration colors that I added this year to our Christmas decorations are gold and silver.  Since I didn’t want to do a total overhaul on Christmas decorations I added some of the mantel décor from the past three years back to the mantel to add in the blue and brown that is on the tree.  I can’t wait to get super cute stockings in the future!

You can check out how I made the wreath in this post.

These little trees are new to the fireplace as well.  I am not super happy with their decorations, but they will do for this year.

I found these great urns at Michele’s and while I was there I saw the topiary.  In the future I would like to make these with white poinsettias in the gold urns.

And that is the mantel for this year….

Now head on over to Ten June and see some other great mantel decorations.
