It's Christmas time at The Mansion


Merry Christmas to you!
From the staff at The Mansion!


This Christmas, decorations can say it all! Are you wanting to decorate your mantel, but are unsure of what to do? Well, we have the answers, and some great tips!


Its a simple string of lights, garland and a few bows here and there, topped off with tall accessories to give the mantel its featured look.Adding a few smaller pieces around and inside the vases really give that full feel. In the picture above we added single ornaments in a bowl, along with a few ornaments here and there to balance out the mantel and to also give that pop of color. We added smaller items such as pearl, silver, or gold beads, and placed them throughout the garland and in this case inside a smaller vase.


What to put on the floor around the mantel? Keeping it festive and adding a few items that have height is a great idea. Candle sticks, tall santa's, trees, more vases with twigs Etc. is a great way to keep the mantel looking fabulous!


Other fun decorating options:
Any arch you have in your home is perfect for garland, lights and large christmas ornaments.

A glass bowl filled with fun ornaments can be used as a decoration on a chest or side table, but is also a statement center piece for a dining room table!


Still time to stop in and pick up our new popery scent "Cranberry Front" for 
a great aroma around the house on this special holiday!
Also keep in mind that now until December 22nd will be 25% off all lamps and accessories!
