A rustic Christmas mantel with all the natural touches including felt animal ornaments!
Today, I’ve teamed up with our Decorate Your Mantel team for a Christmas Edition of our mantels! I will be showing you just one of my mantels today, and saving my favorite for another post! The mantel in our library/ office is in the center of the house and a room we use a lot. This space has a warm and cozy feel with a leather club chair and ottoman for reading, a secretary desk, a green dresser, and a wall of bookshelves. I decided for the mantel in this space, to keep it true to nature and pull in the traditional green and rustic touches. Using a narrow tree in a wicker basket, I loaded it with our favorite animal ornaments. On the mantel, I continued the greenery with a mini tree, garland, and birch logs. In the center is a new wooden Merry Christmas cut out that I bought recently at our Holiday Market. A worn copy of the Christmas Carol, O’ Come All Ye Faithful hangs in the center of a vintage framed chalkboard. The only other touches I added were more birch logs in my copper bucket and a snow-covered birdhouse and reindeer at the base of the tree. It’s a cozy and warm holiday space that we will enjoy throughout the season.

If you like the sort of recommendation that still holds up six months later, leave your email below and I'll write to you on Sunday.
Most Sundays, once the house has gone quiet and it's edging towards nine, a letter goes out. It's the one I'd write to a friend with good taste and not nearly enough time: one thing worth reading, one thing worth buying, and one thing to skip. No noise, no pressure to spend, just the considered version of what I've actually been using, loving, or quietly sending back.

Amy – your rustic mantel is perfection. The addition of the Christmas sheet music is so creative! The little vintage skis are super cute, as is the tree. Thanks so much for including us!

Amy, I love how you’ve decked out this room! Your mantel is giving off the best cozy vibes (I love the sheet music!) and your animal themed tree is so cute.
