Christmas in July- Merry Christmas Mantles

I am {OBSESSED} with mantles.

I think this is because we don't have one in our house.

We were able to pick and choose what we wanted in our house when we built it and we went with French Door opening to our deck into our backyard, instead of a fireplace.

There are only about 2 weeks a year I wish we had a fireplace.

There are a lot of weeks I wish we had a mantle.

I would love to have a place to decorate.

 I do have a very large entertainment center that I decorate a lot but its still not a mantle in the traditional sense that I would like.

 

Here are some of the {BEAUTIFUL} mantles I have found around blog land -

and apparently polk a dots are huge!

I love them too :)

These post this week are really getting me excited for the holidays.
 I cannot wait to start decorating for Halloween, Thanksgiving, & especially Christmas!!
Bring on the Holidays!

It's Christmas In July

Make sure you stop by each day this week.

I will have a round up each day of different Christmas ideas.

I have complied different links for Christmas themes.

I have links for wreaths, mantles, porches & front doors, Christmas Trees,

 and even some fun Elf on the Shelf Ideas.

 I had the best time doing this with my kids this year.

I am really looking forward to it this year.

 I have found the best blogs through my research too.

 Can't wait to share these links with y'all. Hope to see y'all around this week!

 Spread the word to all your friends!

It's Christmas in July!
