Tips To Consider For Styling:
Vary Height- Tall candelbras and stacked books are a great way to draw the eyes upwards into the vertical space and elevating your smaller decoratins.
Don’t Forget To Use The Whole Space- To create a visual interest below the mantle, hang festive bunting or stockings across the fireplace.
Avoid Straight Lines- To help establish depth on a narrow mantlepiece, cluster your items together, stagger some slightly in front and some behind instead of just linging them up side by side.
Stick To Odd Numbers- The best visual display arrangements are items are grouped in odd numbers, especially threes.
Complement Your Colour Scheme- Tie your mantlepiece colourrs with the rest of your living space, whether it goes with your sofa, a feature wall or a piece of artwork.
Add In A Living Element- Whether it’s faux or real, adding in some festive foliage will not only add some life to your mantle as well as a great blank canvas to work with, plus when you’ve got that in place you can layer it with colour, texture and light to your hearts content. If your not wanting to go all-out with the holiday spirit, like full garland, then you can experiement with sprigs of fresh encakyptus, berries or branches of fluffy cotton flowers.
