Neutral Vintage Spring Farmhouse Mantel

Transitioning decor through the seasons is one of my favorite tasks, this week we are tackling our mantel. We had a lot of these colors and textures already up here but we wanted to give it a bit of a facelift. Our last look was early spring when the world hasn't quite woken up yet and nature still has a bit of that winter chill. For this one, we wanted to give a nod to spring planting, and new life while still keeping those rich neutral tones.

We kept the clock and the books at the center of the mantel, we placed a cute framed picture of our ducklings on one side and a creamy mock french birdcage on the other. We placed some cute nests here and there with blown quail eggs and a little duckling figurine. On either side of that, we sat our egg wreaths and small terracotta pots filled with moss in it that we nested our chicken and bluebird figurines in. I think it gives it such a classic farmhouse feel!

This mantel was super fun to put together and we hope it inspires you to try some decor that isn't always thought of as decor! Stop by our Instagram for all the behind the scenes fun that goes on at the Cottage.
