Romantic Winter Mantelscape

With seasonal and Christmas decorations put away I spent a few minutes to do a winter arrangement on the mantel. I kept it simple and continued using the large pine cone and giant cinnamon sticks because they speak to me of the lack of greenery this time of year. Then I decided to break out the romantic treatment here as well. Again, layers of texture showed up in sliver, pewter, wood and glass candlesticks. What’s more romantic than candlelight? I kept the muted print in a metal frame and added white and cream colored candles.

Remember the autumn mantel decor before:

This took less than ten minutes, used what I already had, looks clean and fresh AND it’s romantic!
