Valentine Mantel {Aqua and Pink}


Love is in the air and my mantel is all decked out.  I love creating mantels and am especially pleased with the way this one came together.

The focal point of the mantel is the adorable printable that I downloaded from Jen at Tatertots and Jello.  I used the gray version but she also has a pink version too.  I love the quote that she used.  If you are a regular reader of my blog, you know that my blog title is also a Beatles song.

I had the aqua frame from my Spring Frame project from last year.  It worked out perfectly and I love the aqua and pink color combo. The pink heart is my Valentine Hanging project from last year.  I simply removed the ribbon and tipped it on its side.

I also made the paint chip banner last year as well.

The pink lanterns were from my daughter's Princess Party.  They have been sitting in my garage and I have almost thrown them away on numerous occasions.  I'm glad I didn't! 

The votive candle holders are from my New Year's Mantel.  I may fill them with conversation hearts.

I got the "kiss" jar from the Target dollar bin last year and filled it with hershey kisses.

I love that you can pull together a festive mantel for practically no cost at all. Total cost: $1.59 (I sent the print to Costco).
