When I create a mantel, I like to “shop my house” for things that I already have. But somehow the Target dollar spot sucks me in every time. This year I purchased a cute Hello Spring sign and the little metal lanterns. I just couldn’t resist.  I also added a little yellow bird and a candlestick.

The banner also came from Target and was a gift from my SNAP sister last year. For those of you that are not bloggers, SNAP is an annual conference for creative bloggers that I have attended the past two years. This banner has a slick surface so you can add stickers to it if you want spelling out words like “Spring” or whatever you want! I like to hang banners on my old window. It creates height and draws your eyes up to the ceiling.

I love using flowers in my decor. I prefer fresh flowers but fake flowers last longer and are easier on the budget! This year, I placed some forsythia into a simple glass jar. I love the combo of yellow and aqua. Aqua is my favorite color and it is all throughout my house.
