This year I had something new to work with when decorating my fireplace for winter. Can you guess what it is?

If you guessed a TV, you are right. Having a frame TV above our fireplace was no easy or quick decision for our family but ultimately we decided we’d enjoy having one in our living room and we are so glad we did!

So, if you are new to my blog, you may be familiar with my no-fail steps when decorating a mantel.  The first step includes finding an inspiration piece and building off of that.  With the frame TV now where an inspiration piece goes, I had to reconfigure what to do!

Candles and Candlesticks

Candles and candlesticks

Can we all agree that these look fantastic on a mantel any time of the year? I used some chunky wood ones I already had on hand and added real, white pillar candles to each one. You can always add more pillar candles across the mantel too.

Ceramic vases / pottery pieces

On the other side of the mantel, grab a ceramic vase or pottery piece.  I placed a faux bundle of evergreens inside my ceramic vase.

Baskets

Basket

You know that I have to have baskets (galore!) around our home.  So, it is no surprise that I had two baskets at the base of my fireplace area.  One on each side!

Pre-lit tree

Candlesticks and candles

The basket on the right is holding one of my favorite pre-lit trees.  Once Christmas is over, you simply take off ornaments and just set up the tree in a basket, and plug in the lights.

Lanterns with battery-powered candles

Black lanterns

In front of the basket with the tree, are two of my favorite black lanterns.  Have you ever heard that it is good to have some black in your spaces? These lanterns did the trick and I just placed battery-powered candles in them.

Blankets and pillows

Pillows and blankets

I love a chunky knit blanket (especially with tassels!)! I simply draped a blanket inside the large basket and then placed two winter tree pillows in it.

Blanket Ladder

DIY Blanket ladder

I love adding thick blankets to our DIY blanket ladder. You can simply fold the blankets over or drape the blankets on the rungs.

Protips for even more cozy winter essentials:

Continue to transform your fireplace area into a cozy haven by incorporating essential elements like faux fur throws and plush cushions. These textures not only add comfort but also bring a touch of luxury to your space. Opt for a neutral color palette with seasonal accents to achieve a timeless and versatile look that resonates throughout the year.

To add a layer of sophistication, introduce metallic elements such as brass or gold candle holders for a subtle touch of glamour. Create the perfect sensory experience with scented candles featuring wintry fragrances like pine or cinnamon.

 

Woven basket

 

Consider placing mirrors on or around the mantel to amplify the warm glow and give the illusion of a more expansive space. These simple yet impactful tips will craft a cozy and stylish fireplace area.
