I adore springtime. I know it must be coming soon. Here in Northeast Pennsylvania, we still have a coating of snow on the ground from this past week’s storm. I am soooooo ready for spring! I love the concept of new life and change … spring refreshes and rejuvenates me. I am just itching for it. In the meantime, I thought I would prepare for the season with a little fireplace mantel transformation. I love a good makeover. Here is my before just for fun…I give you my Valentine’s Day mantel:
And my new and fresh Spring mantel!
Isn’t it like a breath of fresh air?
Aaaahhhhhhhh.

I used Old White chalk paint for the window frame
as well as the smaller mirror.
Fun mirror I found on the cheap out thrifting.
Of course I painted it. And added
some glaze.
Look at all those nooks and crannies!

My theme is birds!
I have a little globe obsession as in when I see
one out thrifting, I pick it up. I love them!
This was $3 at Salvation Army
which I thought was a great deal!
I really like the change.

Wow! Both of them are awesome! I cannot believe you have the items on hand to make both of these amazing looks happen. And I may be a little jealous of the fireplace!
