Winter Mantel
When the Christmas mantel is disassembled, I put together a new mantel that is a little more neutral until Spring. I decided to go with a silver theme, with my metal houses front and center.
I did include a couple pieces of silver plate and tucked in a pair of opera binoculars.
I’ve purchased all of the metal houses in the last year or so, including three of them I picked up yesterday in our store!
I usually only polish silver that will be used for food so this coffee pot and the salt and pepper shakers are well tarnished. I love that look! And the detail on the shakers is so pretty.
The lavender in the coffee pot is from Blue Hills Lavender in BC. This company makes a variety of products from the lavender they grow. It all smells lovely!
The weather has been quite nice for January in Alberta this winter. But I am looking forward to spring and all the colours it brings!
