Mirror, Photo Frame & Fall Mantle

Fall is my favorite season, it helps that Kevin and I both celebrate birthdays (soon our son will too!).  Beyond that I love the colors, sweaters, boots, hot cider, coffee (never out of season), scarves, and cooler weather. 

It was time for a change of our mantle, not only for fall, but for some brighter colors.  The change that should stick through the seasons for awhile is the repainted mirror I found at a yard sale for $3.  Our mirror that hung here prior was black and it was making the mantle too dark.

The picture of us had a stark white mat so I added some scrapbook paper to give it a warmer, fall feel.

Lastly, the mantle is back in shape.  The last time I gave it a redo was probably in the Spring.  I was too lazy this summer, and our living room is decorated in colors of summer, to give it a seasonal makeover.

I’d love to know what you’re doing this fall to welcome cooler weather and warmer beverages!
