Crafting: 4th of July Mantle Decor

If you read my post yesterday, you would have saw the beginning of my 4th of July mantle decor. 

If not click here to check out the details on how I went about crafting this frame. 

Our wedding anniversary is July 2nd, so I wanted to incorporate some memorably into our decorations. 

I gathered things from all around the house and purchased a few small cheap things from hobby lobby.

Because of the flash you cant really see, but in that in the frame is our wedding invatiation. You can also see our handmade cake toppers of our initials in the flower arrangement. 

Paper fan purchased at hobby lobby.

 Wooden star purchased at a boutique here in Wichita.

 

The bird can be found at Michael's and the silver vase I purchased at Hobby Lobby.

Banner purchased from Hobby Lobby. 

Aren't mantles the best thing to decorate?

They are the main focal point of any room and you can do so much with them.

Seeing the completed picture makes me want to now go and paint the mantle white.

 I guess I'll just have to add it to the every growing list!
