I love to change my fireplace mantel to reflect the seasons. I’m a little behind in getting my Fall decor up due to a major renovation in our master bath that produced more dust than I could have ever imagined!! Yikes, I don’t know if I’ll ever find all of it!!
I love all the different free printable subway art that is available on Pinterest. I searched under “Fall subway art” and found this great printable. If this one doesn’t strike your fancy, just keep looking…I’m sure you’ll find the perfect one for you!
I printed it on white card stock and trimmed it close. I needed to soften the white background a bit, so I used a stipple brush to lightly apply some brown ink all over the card stock. I then attached it to an 8 x 10 inch piece of orange card stock to fit in my frame. I found this great distressed white frame on clearance at Kohl’s. I use it for each season ~ just change out the subway art. I even store them all in the frame behind the one I am currently using 🙂
Here’s another printable I found here for Fall. There are 10 different ones to choose from on this site ~ so cute!!
I picked the lantern up at Target a couple of years ago, but I recently saw the same thing at Michael’s and you can use your 40% off coupon. 🙂 Fill it with pumpkins, gourds, a candle with coffee beans, or your favorite Fall vase filler. Pair it with your subway art and you have a cute decoration for your mantel or side table.
Thanks for stopping by,
Anita
I love these so much, especially how simple yet elegant they are. And I’d never thought of filling a lantern with coffee beans, but that’s such a cool look!
