Fun Everyday Decorations for the Fireplace Mantel

After you’ve installed your fireplace mantel, you’ll see a barren, naked space. It’s a large space and the focal point of the room, so don’t let another day pass—get some decorations for the fireplace mantel. Decorations on the mantel can change with the seasons, have a fixed look, or have rotating designs and colors. Get creative with your fireplace mantel décor with our tips.

Change for the Holidays

During Christmas, stockings can be hung, and an Elf on the Shelf can hide on the mantel. When spring and Easter arrive, decorate with pastels, fresh flowers, and maybe a stuffed bunny or two. Halloween means jack-o-lanterns, spooky ghosts, and spiderwebs can grace this space. Whatever the holiday is, make your mantel the focal point with festive looks.

Sports Central

If you’re a sports superfan, then use your mantel to let the world know your team is the best. Hang an autographed framed jersey or an autographed photo of your favorite player. Sports memorabilia is easy to find, so you shouldn’t have any problems getting some for your mantel.

Display Trophies

When your children come home with a trophy from the derby race, soccer tournament, or spelling bee, put it on the mantel. Displaying your child’s trophies will make your kids happy to know you’re proud of them. If you don’t have kids and are an avid hunter, get your next trophy buck mounted, and hang it over the mantel.

Family Heirlooms and Photos

Don’t stick your family photos in a box in the back of the closet. A nice frame or shadow box can give old photos new life. Frames and shadow boxes come in many colors and designs, so pick one that complements the photo and room. Heirlooms handed down through the generations can give a vintage look to a modern room, so add those as well.
