This was our easy holiday mantel from last year. The wreath was real (look at me!) and I kinda wanted to replace the garland with a real one, but not enough to actually do it. We’ve had the green Santa box for years and the kids drop letters in it frequently (I think it’s probably the last year and we totally forgot to do Elf on the Shelf which they are asking for so I need to run out and find that dude). ANYWAY - if you’re in the market for an affordable Christmas vignette, these are a few of my favorite pieces: simple wooden garland, a bit of greenery, some nice candles, a row of stockings, and a little bit of whimsy (the flocked deer come in grey this year - it’s a little more grown up than this blue version, but I love both!).
