If you’ve seen my stories, you know we’re going a lot more merry and bright and all things color🎄this year so I thought I’d share this again for those who like to keep it a little more neutral with maybe a pop or two of red. I loved this mantle styling so much! Here’s how I did it: 1. I hung my stockings first using flat stocking hooks that sit on top of the mantle. They’re low profile and the garland can drape over the top of them. Don’t forget stocking tags! 2. I used real touch Norfolk Pine Garland. I used one 8’ foot deluxe strand and four 6’ foot regular because this is just what I already had. You can’t get this look without layering multiple pieces of garland (which adds up unfortunately) but the deluxe is really full, so it will take less if you use that! Also this garland is amazing quality and will last for years! My mantel is rough so I use nails to hang my garland, but there are lots of command hook options that work well too! 3. If you want lights in your garland, this is the time to weave them through before you start adding anything else! I just wrapped warm white lights around the garland. Twinkling or fairy lights work well too! 4. I love mixing greenery so I added eucalyptus this year. I deconstructed my seeded eucalyptus garland and just stuck the picks right in to the Pine Garland. I used two strands of eucalyptus to fill in mine. 5. Next I added in berry picks. I used matte red, frosted red, and frosted gold! Mine are from Hobby Lobby. 6. I added a strand of vintage bells…these will never go out of style in my opinion! You could also add velvet ribbon! 7. I finished decorating the fireplace by adding flameless candles and candlesticks, throw pillows, and beautiful birch trees! I loved adding in the pops of red and how it turned out! It was worth the effort it took to get here!😍 LTKHoliday LTKStyleTip LTKHome
