the mantel re-do after Christmas...

It always saddens me to put Christmas away...



so I thought that a mantel re-do might lighten my spirits...


it just seems as if Christmas comes and goes so very quickly...


and I feel like I just finish decorating, and then it is Christmas day!


so I went with a nature theme...
I am going to rework my living room completely, just with what I have around...
more re-dos to come...

That's what I am wanting to do except my mantel has a HUGE wall (6 ft wide by 4 ft tall) so I have been pondering it for a long time. Any ideas without it looking too fussy?
