Modern Mantels

MantelCraft offers beautiful modern mantels for your home.  With the holidays approaching, many people are considering the look of their mantels. Fall and winter holidays are classic times for people to give their mantels a fresh, updated look.  Here are some great decorating tips to give your modern mantel a gorgeous fall theme!

This autumn season, choose natural elements to add texture and warmth to your mantel. Warm ochers, woody browns and bone whites create a beautiful color palette. This will help your modern mantel easily transition from fall to winter.

Start with a beautiful rustic focal point.  A twig mirror is a great beginning point.  This is an easy DIY project for those who are crafty.  If not, these are easy to find for purchase this time of year.

Add rich, beautiful color to your mantel with a dried flower arrangement that will last through the season. These are available at most hobby and craft stores. Arrange them in a rustic wooden box and you have an amazing display of color.

Birds are huge this year in decorating! Find a carved wooden bird. This is the perfect combination of modern and rustic.  You can pair birds together in a grouping or just leave them single.

Add texture and visual interest to your mantel with decorative balls. These are available in various sizes and out of numerous mediums. This is also a very inexpensive way to add color and texture to your modern mantels design.

You cannot ever go wrong with gourds!  They are in abundance this time of year! They are a beautiful addition to your fall modern mantel décor.  They offer natural shape and color and flow well with dried flowers and twigs.

It is time to get creative! Your modern mantel from MantelCraft is waiting for a fresh, updated look.
