EASY VALENTINE’S DAY MANTEL

I am excited to join Carol on her blog for this month’s Celebrate the Holiday. For me, this month is about organizing and subtle decor

The wreath is two wreaths- one is from the Dollar Store and the heart-shaped wreath I found on clearance last spring.

WREATH

Sidenote: I love shopping the clearance aisles this time of year at my favorite stores.

What about you?

I love the warmth of the mantel and the red is a nod to Christmas and Valentine’s Day.
