Valentine’s Day Mantle Decor
In this video, I want to welcome you into my family room and show you how I decorated my fireplace mantle. You see, I always struggle with decorating it because it has the ugly TV. I personally hate the TV and would get rid of all of them in the house if I had a chance but the hubs HAS to watch his football, so we compromise. He can have the TV and watch his stupid football and I get to decorate the house anyway I want. I think that is totally fair! What say you???
There are a few tips and tricks I learned and I want to share them with you while I decorate with my Valentine’s Day Mantle Decor Idea.
While I couldn’t locate the exact supplies I used, I came up with some good substitutes:
- Candle Sticks
- Fire Retardant Outdoor Potted Cedar by ThermaLeaf®
- 4″ Green Grass Sphere
- 6″ Green Sphere
- Bloom Where you are Planted Sign
- Chalk Couture Heart Transfer
- Chalkology Paint Peachy
- Burlap Heart Garland
- Burlap and Lace Garland
- Wooden Farmhouse Sign With Wreath learn to make here
- Chalkboard Love Sign Substitute
- Spring Candle Stick Topper learn to make here
- Compact Decorative Spring Wreath

Valentine’s Day Mantle Decor
- First, I place taller items on either side of the TV on both ends of the mantle as anchor pieces. This forms a triangle from the top of the TV to either side of the mantle.
- Then I place something just a little shorter beside those anchor pieces so that the eye gradually moves up towards the ends of the fireplace and then to the top of the TV.
- I then place items just under the TV and make sure they are short enough so they don’t interfere with viewing the TV while its on or the remote control signals.
- I place various heights some tall like this compact decorative wreath I taught you how to make HERE and then some short like the small mossy covered spheres.
- Then in order to bring the peach color throughout, I made a spring candlestick topper to place on top of the candlestick. Learn to make a candlestick topper HERE.
- Under the mantle I layered a burlap and lace garland with a burlap heart garland where I used my Chalk Couture paste and transfer to add peachy colored hearts.
- Under the mantle I placed my wooden farmhouse sign with wreath I showed you how to make HERE last year with a pretty funky bow on top of my lantern.
