Fall Mantle Part 2


We are so blessed to have two mantles to get to decorate!  But, I will tell you that our spring mantle was the summer mantle too.  It takes a lot of time to change things out! 


The vines are honeysuckle vines from the back yard.  They last for a couple of weeks in water!  


The vine pumpkins came from Target.  I feel like I cheated with something "new", but they are so neat.


The three books on the left are Norwegian that have been translated to English.  The next book is a Bible, maybe German?  It has an incredibly beautiful font inside.

The bottle says "Old Ruxton Rye".  I'm not sure it's particularly old.  It came in a box of bottles I picked up and I just liked the color and shape.


This set of books may be the neatest I've ever picked up. They have marbled covers, but spines are in really poor shape.


I didn't care because I bought them for the textured pages...mmmm...so something...they make me happy. :)


I'm glad you stopped by!

I'm linking up with Debra and her Vintage Inspiration Friday blog party.

  3. Gorgeous mantel and I love the old books. Do you think the ones with the "textured" pages were hand printed and bound?
    Happy weekend,
