DIY Fall Mantle

DIY Fall Mantle

I just can’t get enough fall! I decided that I wanted it to be exploding out of our fireplace at the Home and Family house. There is just something about fall that makes me so happy! It is probably because of the fall season very nostalgic for me. Growing up in Michigan with the beautiful weather, football season and all of the fun things that go along with this time of year…I am just such a sucker! Pumpkin spice and all, I have no shame in my game.

I really hope that this DIY Fall Mantle will inspire your fall home decor. From the lanterns to the pumpkins, there is a little something for everyone’s style. This would also be pretty in some other colors like white and brown, or metallic if that is more your aesthetic.
