Thanksgiving Mantel

So it's been a while since I posted anything to my blog, and I've been wanting to start it up again.  I guess there's no time like the present.  I'll start off with my Thanksgiving mantel decoration, since I was so happy with how it turned out!

We bought some accent moulding at Home Depot, spray painted it and used some removable adhesive to attach it to the front of the mantel.  I was inspired by this pin to make some dried/pressed leaf candles.  I found some wheat stalks at the Goodwill and used empty cleaned glass jars to display it.  Add in some leftover halloween pumpkins and green candles and... Done!  I love the way it turned out, and have gotten lots of compliments which always feels good :o)
