Okay, so I know "M" week was last week.
Simple truth, I wanted to play with the Nester and her mantle party.
Complete disclosure, I want to be her friend.
She is awesome. It is her fault that my first post of "N" week is "Never satisfied." It has nothing to do with the fact that I am, in truth, never satistfied.
Anyway, get in your time machines and go back to "M" week with me.

This will be relatively quick, painless, and full of pictures. I have an upstairs mantle and a downstairs mantle. Let's start with the upstairs:
Here is how my mantle looked at Christmas:

Here is the same mantle at Valentine's:
Finally here is how the mantle looks right now (I haven't taken down the Easter stuff yet, don't judge me):
Here is the downstairs mantle (I only have pics of this one handy for the current season.
Yes I am THAT needy. I just want to be part of the Nester's party.

Finally, I have one more "mantle" in my bedroom. I (my hubby actually) made it to serve as a shelf for the entrance to the bedroom. You can read more about the bedroom semi-transformation here.
That's all I got. Come by the Nester's for more (better) mantle inspiration!
how fun that you have several surfaces to play around with. Love how each one has a different look!
