It’s summertime and that means time to change up the mantel. Here’s how I made over my mantel from spring to sweet and simple, beachy summer decor.
I have a fireplace in my home for one reason – the mantel. It’s true, I haven’t lit a fire in it in over six years. I’d love to share my summer mantel with you today!
Because I loved my spring mantel so much, I decided I wanted to keep all of my jars and bottles up there and just update it for summer by adding a bunch of seashells from my collection.
Looking out my back window I realized that my hydrangea plant was in full bloom, so I decided to grab a few stems and add them to the mantel. They created such a pretty contrast with the blue jars.
I simply poured water into the jars that already had a bunch of shells in them and added the blooms.
An easy way to add a touch a summer to the bottles was by topping them with seashells, as a “stopper.”
So beautiful and simple. Love it!
So FUn.. and So dang pretty! Love those flowers!
The colors are absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!!! It is so Refreshing and Cool!! I think when the Summer temps get unbearable I will come and relax on this page 😉
You did a LOVELY job and thank you so much for sharing it with us!

Oh wow, I love everything about this! The blue mason jars and the bright hydrangeas complement one another so well! I’m dying to grow a hydrangea bush of my own but have no green thumb whatsoever 🙂
This is gorgeous! So simple and pretty 😉
