Fireplace Mantel Makeover Ideas

Mantel Makeover Ideas

My newest obsession is making our fireplace mantel pretty. Why? Because the fireplace is literally the first thing you see when you walk into our home, so I want it to look amazing and give off a good feel for our visitors. First impressions, people! So I decided to look up some good mantel decorating ideas. I have some good ideas in mind, but I love looking at other people’s pictures for inspiration or ideas I may never have thought of.

I love the idea of having a mirror resting on the mantel or hanging above it. I also want to incorporate pictures and cool picture frames into ours, like shown below.

Warmly White

If we can’t find a mirror that we like for the mantel, I’d love create my own painting to place on the mantel. I like to use my creative side and make things myself rather than taking the easy way out and just buying a painting. I love that this painting goes with the color scheme of the room. The chair with this painting looks fab!

Carry the Color Scheme

Pictures, pictures, pictures. I love the thought of having many pictures displayed in our living room. Different sized framed photos look awesome on a mantel.

A mirror mixed with vases and flowers = LOVE. Especially now that it’s spring time, tulips are my flower of choice.

Where to buy goodies to decorate your mantel:

On a budget? Check out Target’s selection of vases, here.

My personal fav from Target is this one:

Blue Mouth Blown Glass Vase; 11.8" height

For less than $20 you’re already adding so much character to your mantel!

Don’t care how much a vase costs? Check out Pottery Barn’s awesome sea glass vases, here. I’m officially obsessed.

Home Goods always has tons of mirrors available, but if you’re looking for something a little funky, check out Pier 1 Imports. I went on their website and found tons of cool mirrors for under $200.

Loving this metal framed one:
