Designing A Mantle Using 1 3 5 Rule

Good evening friends.
Hope you all had a wonderful weekend.
It sure was a nice one here in Michigan.
I even opened up our catio for our kitties,
while I enjoyed the warm breeze come inside.
Spent today working on some prim Spring chicks.
Tomorrow I will give them a stain bath,
and then I will show them off.
This warm weather has made my brain twirl with ideas.
Of course most of these are 
B U N N I E S
My favorite!

As promised I will continue my
lil tutorials on how to decorate using the 
1 3 5 Rule.

This time with my fireplace mantle.

So let's start with the focal point.

This blanket crane with a red coverlet piece.

Now comes the rule.

Add three pitchers to one side.

With two lanterns on the other side.

This makes five.

But still a bit boring.

Add three hydrangeas and now we have

a mantle design using a combination

of both 3 and 5.

Just remember to use the 

1  3  5  rule

 and you are good to go!

Has anyone seen this new magazine?

It is called American Country and this is the premier issue.

I found it on our travels last weekend.

For those who like The Simple Life magazine,

I would compare this to that one.

Primitive collections on every page.

So glad I purchased this.

Now I am going to see if I can subscribe to it.

Mantle Design Blessings To All!
