This time of year is one of seasonal decorating for me. In Minnesota,
it is bare and quite cold. While I'm not quite ready to decorate for Christmas...
I do begin to bring in deeper color for Thanksgiving and
greenery that will last through the season!

I just finished putting together a pretty Thanksgiving mantel using
some new goodies from Oriental Trading and some natural elements!
I started by lining the mantel with dried hydrangea, preserved leaves and some faux pheasant feathers. I also added two topiaries I had, for seasonal greenery.
I added a beautiful set of two Copper Lanterns at each end.
They come with a large and small size, and I love the metallic look they add.
With all the dried materials, I would only use flameless candles on this mantel.
I also nestled some Wooden Candle Holders amongst the leaves and hydrangea. They hold tealight size flameless and come three to a set. I used two sets for decorative highlights, and the wood texture is so pretty!
On the mirror, I hung a lovely Fall Magnolia Leaves Pinecone Wreath. It's quite pretty, and I love the color tones and the pinecones. I think it would
be perfect on a table with one of the lanterns in the middle, too!
I love the look for late fall and Thanksgiving!
I am a brand ambassador for Oriental Trading and received some of
the products used in this post. It's always fun decorating with their goodies!
All opinions are my own.
Until next time...
just beautiful, perfect for the Season. LOVE that Magnolia wreath!

Lovely mantel. I love all the natural elements you used.
ReplyDeleteHow fun. I love the copper lanterns. Those votives are darling.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty mantle, Linda. Love the lantern and those wooden candle holders are lovely. They look like hickory but I wouldn't swear to it. Hope you have a great week. xo Diana
ReplyDeleteThe mantel is perfect for Thanksgiving, Linda! Love the faux feathers with the hydrangea and the magnolia wreath. Such a pretty rustic, woodland feel. Hard to believe Thanksgiving is around the corner. Where did this year go? xx K
ReplyDeleteI love the warmth of the copper lanterns and wood votives. So pretty for Thanksgiving with the magnolia wreath hung on your mirror! I'm afraid the rush to post Christmas has begun, so I'm happy to see Thanksgiving accents here, Linda!
ReplyDeleteThat collection of natural and 'looking' elements is very pretty. Magnolia leaves are one of my favorites!
ReplyDeleteI don't have a lot of decor for Thanksgiving so I usually just leave out some fall decor. I love the wreat on your mirror!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty and festive, Linda!
ReplyDeleteThe mantle looks amazing Linda. I especially love the pheasant feathers and the dried hydrangeas. So delicate and pretty.
ReplyDeleteI bet it looks magical with the candles flickering (good call about no real flames ;)
