I worked with Amara to put together this beautiful Rustic Christmas Mantel and I just love how it turned out.  

My starting point was their amazing paper ornaments and trees.  I love the Scandi vibe they give the mantel.  I went with a colour scheme of white, grey, and black -you know i love neutrals.  There's only a couple of black pieces, but they really help ground the whole look.

Paper Decorations

I used a couple of sets of their Christmas trees -the honey comb ones come as a set of three, with the largest one being on the floor.  The quality is amazing.

The other Christmas trees are made of cardstock.

They also have the most beautiful ornaments.  I love that all the paper decorations fold flat for storage, and then open and hold together with magnets.

On the mantel I also added the Deco Sage Leaves Garland,  -love that it's seeded and so real looking.

Throw Blanket and Twinkle Lights

I also added in a new wool throw blanket in cream, for cozy nights by the fire this winter

The macrame garland is an easy DIY, you can see how I made it here.  I also added in a set of pretty silver lights for a little night time sparkle.
