Valentine Mantel and Easy Way to Dress Up Candles

Here is my mantel decorated for Valentines Day.  I put my Valentine Tree in the middle.  It is just some branches that were spraypainted white (with a little red glitter sprinkled on) in a little metal container that is spraypainted silver.  I added some red paper shred to the bottom and decorated the tree with some felt heart ornaments.  My Bee Mine printable is in a red frame next to that.  My frame was a bit too big for the paper but I really wanted to use the red frame.  I have my Flower Pot next to that made with heart picks from the Dollar Tree. 


On the other side of that is a couple of candles that I added some ribbon to.  I know a lot of people will hotglue the ribbon to the candle to dress them up but not me!  I want to be able to reuse my candles and my ribbon for something else later so I just pinned the ribbon on with safety pins and hid that on the back! 

Then I have a red candleholder thingie from Hobby Lobby that was given to me last year and a few little cute kitty cats.  There were 5 little kitties to start with but I’m down to three now.



 



Hanging across the bottom is my LOVE Banner that I made.  Very simple and super cheap but still festive and cute.
