I will show you how I decorated for autumn with my fall mantel makeover and enjoy the free printable!Fall Fireplace Mantel poster.

Oh, my favorite time of the year is finally upon us! Time to get the beautiful Fall decorations out of the basement and decorate my fireplace mantel.

Fireplace mantel with autumn leaves and candle stick holders with pumpkins on them.One of my favorite additions to this year’s fireplace mantel was a new autumn garland filled with pumpkins and berries that I purchased from Michael’s for 50% off.

Fall garland with berries and pumpkins on the front of the fireplace.And I’m lovin’ these Command™ Brand clear hooks. First time I’ve ever used them and I’m flabbergasted that I never found these puppies before. They rock… that’s all I gotta say (tip: visit their website for some cool coupons).

Clear hooks holding up the garland on the fireplace.I got a new ASCP little accent table from Red Posie, a vintage store near my house. Perfect size to sit on my fireplace hearth and hold a basket of flowers and some pumpkins.

Red gold and yellow flowers on the mantel.I found some candlesticks on clearance for $5 from Michael’s and topped them with some cute mini ivory pumpkins.

Candlestick holders with white mini pumpkins on top.Then I filled a plastic orange vase with a small bouquet of autumn flowers. Both items from the Dollar Store. Love using cheap design elements in my displays.

After I finished up my Fall mantel I thought I needed one more thing to make it my own. So I figured since I’m a graphic designer by trade, I would create a fun and festive Fall Subway Art printable to display.

    Every time the holidays roll around it always makes me wish I have a fireplace and a mantel. I do have a table near my front entry that I treat as a faux mantel. I love that garland you have! It is beautiful.

    • howtonestforless says

      Thanks so much Laura! Good luck with your faux mantel. That was me in our last apartment!

    Your mantle is absolutely beautiful! I don’t have a mantel to decorate, but “floofing” for Fall is on my to do list for today! I’m so excited I can’t stand it. {I guess I’d better start by getting out of this bathrobe!:)} Thanks for sharing your inspiring, creative decor ideas. I love them.

    It’s so pretty! I do an apple theme until October, then Halloween and then a fall theme until Thanksgiving. It’s so fun to play with the mantle! LOL!

    Those command strips do rock I use them all over the house to hang everything now because of my plaster walls there is no nail or screw that goes into the walls without making a crater
    Thanks for sharing the little stool.

  14. Chelsea @ two twenty one says

    If I had a mantel, you’d be in charge of decorating it. I love the garland and how you hung it with the Command strips. Smarty pants.
