Summer vacations
are just about over, but the Summer weather continues until October
where I live so I still have some Summer decorating to do around here.
This past weekend I worked on my mantel adding a few summer elements to the mix.
I
have to admit, my home usually looks dressed for Summer/Spring months
because of my color scheme, but I still like to shake it up a bit.
This is a fresh look for Spring, but I wanted to add a few elements that reminded me of summer.
In comes the beach……..
Glass balls full of bubbles remind me of being under water!
Add a shell and it equals=
SUMMER MANTEL
Still simple enough for me without too much going on.
I also had a blueprint of a sailboat framed in a simple white frame, and mat with an inset of black with a white beveled edge.
I wanted the blueprint to stand out so I kept the framing simple.....
Here is a close-up......

Next will be the addition of a few summer pillows, hopefully they will be coming in this week.
As Always……
