After Christmas ended and decor started filtering back to 'normal', I decided I wanted to keep my mantle still on the cozy/winter side of things.
Since most of the Christmas mantle, (you can see more about it here) was filled with neutrals and then pops of Christmas trees & red, I figured it would be somewhat easy to add a few pieces to transform it from festive to cozy.
And since I'm terrible at blogging lately, I full on forgot to take a photo of the 'winter' version but really only one thing changed.
So let's chat a cozy, wintery, Valentine mantle, shall we?
So for a Valentin-y, cozy feel, the two sides of the mantle were changed.
Down came the reindeer & trees and up went stacks of aged books, brass candlesticks and a few metallic pieces.
