Fall is the time of the year when the fireplace area becomes one of the most desired places to be. What a great excuse to amp up your fireplace mantel decor! While temperatures drop outside, a welcoming and warm home is the ultimate pleasure. And a touch of rustic is all it takes to make your space extra cozy, as long as your fireplace type<\/a> allows it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Think distressed wood and dark or brushed metals. They\u2019re typically used in a farmhouse style interior, but a few touches here and there can fit other interior design styles<\/a><\/strong> as well, and will be just enough to transition your fireplace decor into fall!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Especially in this season, going for a walk in the woods can also double as a home decor shopping session. Bring home some pinecones and acorns to fill your vases and jars with fall vibes. You can also use colorful leaves at home. By framing them or making a wreath out of them you\u2019ll have created the perfect fall artwork with zero money spent!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Time to think about fireplace Christmas decorations! A garland with picks, ornaments and some sparkles is the most traditional way to decorate a mantel<\/a> for the holidays, and we love that! If you want to go less traditional, create a Christmas vignette in the center of the mantel (or two at the sides). For a relaxed vibe, display some picks into a vase and lay a few ornaments around it…and you’ll be ready for the holidays!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, to make the atmosphere even more magic, don\u2019t forget to light up the mantel with twinkle lights and candles (battery operated are the safest bet here, especially next to greenery of other flammable items). Above the mantel, hang a \u201cMerry Christmas\u201d sign or a festive artwork to pull the theme together. And don\u2019t forget to hang stockings for Santa to come!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mirrors are another essential when it comes to above fireplace decor. They work all year round and help make a space feel larger and brighter. But in winter they\u2019ll make your home even merrier, by reflecting all the Christmas decorations you have put up. So, if you\u2019re hanging or leaning a mirror above your fireplace mantel<\/a>, choose carefully what will go in front of it. That\u2019s what will be reflected and it will be like having it doubled!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spring is the time of the year when nature blooms\u2026and your fireplace mantel should bloom too! Not surprisingly then, our best fireplace decorating inspiration<\/a> for spring is to add flowers to your mantel!
