Fall Mantel Idea {Step by Step}

 A chill in the air has inspired more fall decor at my house!
First step was to gather some pottery; a paprika Longaberger platter will work nice.
Next comes 4 fall flower picks from Michael's... 
Two berry and leaf stems, a berry pick and a cluster of leaves.
.
Then plop the picks on the platter {no rocket science here!} by cris-crossing the first two...


 
 putting one at the middle front...


and a slightly bigger clump of leaves in the middle back.



 I added a piece of thrift-shop art with some fall tones to it...


then a pitcher that mirrored those colors and my favorite resin black bird...


Next comes a berry wreath from Michael's between a pair of Paprika candlesticks with beige pillars...


 And take a step back to see the whole thing!


Pretty simple... Pretty warm... For this chilly day!x
