Wasn't it just Christmas?
As I was putting away my Christmas/winter decorations, I wasn't sure what I wanted to do on the mantle till spring. I don't do a lot of theme decorating, mostly seasonal.
Then it hit me. Do a Valentine mantle.
I wasn't ready to put my snow mason jars away because it is still winter, so I incorporated them into my vignette.
The Bible was given to me on my 11th birthday from my mom and dad. Oh, I remember how much I wanted a white Bible when I was young. Inside the front cover I had written, "This book keeps me from evil, evil keeps me from this book."
Wrapping jars or in this case a vase with jute, adds such natural warmth and it's so easy to do yourself.
Happy Valentine's Day

That's beautiful, Pearl. Who says you can't decorate. You totally have the touch.
ReplyDeleteIt's not my favorite thing ever and finding the time is another. I need to go garage sale-ing and find some new stuff!
DeleteVery pretty. The jars can be incorporated in anything you do there. And actually this looks pretty for anytime of the year.

Thank You! You are right...I especially like the blue jars.
DeleteI too got my first bible as a gift and still have it. I have to say one can't get a better gift if a Christian. Your mantle must look festive in any season. I love the jute wrapped jar. Clever and pretty.
ReplyDeleteThat Bible was found recently at my parents house. I was very surprised to see it after all these years. It's not in good shape but it's special!
DeleteLove the decor! Come do my place, oh and you'd have to bring all the decorations as well...since I don't have ANYTHING to make it pretty :(
