MANTEL STYLE !

Fill your mantel with personality and character , and use it as a canvas to bring your living space alive . Start by considering the size and shape of the mantelpiece and how the theme will tie in with the overall room aesthetic . Consider the practicalities of styling , whether or not the fire is functional , and how the space is best used . Stick to working with groups of three or five and choose objects , frames or flowers that work together - be that in theme , colour or both . Make it scattered , play around with heights , and create different layers that add story and a depth of interest to your room .
