Variation on a Theme .... Mantelscapes






.

Mantelpieces are another wonderful way to add style to a room - just like tablescapes. From simple candles and fresh flowers to collections of antique treasures, you are only limited by your imagination!

  1. Oh dear...these are just fab-u-lous...you have touched my interior design heart here !!!!!
    I have a fireplace in every room in our house(apart from a couple).Firelaces are my most favourite thing and these are absolutely wonderful. I think I had an article on the first one.. an apartment in Paris, I think. It was one of my favourite homes and I lost the magazine.Just love every image and thanks for showing us such lovely fireplaces. XXXX

  6. The mantel might be just as important as the entry hall? hmmm. Maybe. Your posting of mantels is inspiring.
    I am rethinking mine again in the morning. (Texas time, :)) )

  8. I miss having a mantlepiece to display things on. Although, with the 30 degree + days we are having here, even the thought of a fireplace makes me feel hotter!
