Summer Mantle

I've changed my mantle from spring to summer by moving just a couple of things around.  I took the spring wreath down and put up my sailboat and beach sign.  I left the silver mercury glass candlesticks and the trophies because I love the white and silver.  It just feels cool and fresh to me. 














I'm parting at:

Till next time....

I love your beachy decorations. It is winter here in Australia so it was warming to see touches of summer over here!
