You've asked for photos (and I love showing off!) but I cant find the card with our Xmas pics (that will teach me not to download them on the hard drive). Still, I got these - my MILs mantels last year.

Both every time!! Just pick and choose what you like and work on combining them tastefully - you can end up with something spectacular.

@cinderellaslipper - you are right! It is Kyffin Williams, MIL has quite a few of his paintings. Also, she has great taste and sense of style, and is what I call 'a genuine lady'! I'm very lucky to have her as my MIL; plus, my husband has been raised by her, so he is just as great!! :))

I think I need to add some red into my Christmas tree because it doesn't seem to match the decorations on the fireplace now. Maybe a red ribbon going through it?

We chop and change each year from traditional to contemporary. So nice to plan a fresh look each Christmas.
