I love Spring and am so excited to decorate my mantel for Spring. Check out my Floral and Greenery Spring Mantel
With all of the Spring plant posts I've done lately, vintage chicken feeder succulent holder, update home decor with plants, lavender spring wreath, I'm going to be the crazy plant lady! I can't help it.
After a long winter, I love filling my home with green and life. Or at least plants that look alive!
Inspired by a display I saw at a local market, I added some greenery, faux lavender and hanging watering cans to my mantel for spring.
I bought mini watering cans from Hobby Lobby. They looked too new, so I distressed them a bit by wiping a bit of brown, white and black craft paint on them with a paper towel.
I made a chicken wire message board years ago (so long ago that the photos are terrible) from hardware store chicken wire and canvas frame stretchers.
I used a garland from Hobby lobby to drape over the top of my mantel. It is held in place with push pins.
At the top, I used a branch from my yard, hung with clear command hooks.
I hung the watering cans with cotton twine.
I filled the watering cans with faux lavender.
I bought this Spring metal sign from my local craft store.
To antique it a bit, I sprayed it with textured spray paint. I used little metal clips to attach it to the chicken wire.
The branch, the greenery and the watering cans make such a fun Mantel for Spring!
