Florals + Greenery for Our Coastal Cottage Christmas Mantel

Today I wanted to share about our Christmas mantel! This year I thought it would be fun to try something a little different with floral and evergreen elements I already had. I layered a couple types of florals alongside evergreen garland, scattered pinecones, and the soft glow of (faux) candles. It was so simple to make but I think it makes such a pretty winter statement!

Our Christmas Chandelier + Simple Winter Table (In My Coastal Christmas Dining Room!)

My dining room chandelier and table, simply decorated for the upcoming season!

I usually start what I call “winter decorating” just before Thanksgiving so I can make our home feel extra cozy and welcoming for hosting over the whole season. We are hosting family on both holidays! We love the touch of greenery at Thanksgiving and leading up to the Christmas season.

It feels both festive and peaceful in here, so we’re ready to celebrate this season and blessings with gratitude!
