Summer mantel inspiration

It is FINALLY that time of year again....to figure out what my summer mantel will look like. After a few Google searches and a couple several minutes on Pinterest I have collected some pretty summer mantels to give me some much needed inspiration and direction on what to do this year.

I love the natural rustic look here with the drift wood, white candles and a pop of green.

Fresh white can easily go from spring to summer.

I love the pop of orange combined with the aqua glass! The pinwheel banner is super cute too, I might have to steal some ideas from this one!

I love the white and yellow combination, the daffodils could easily be changed out for another summer flower like daisies.

I really like the idea of putting some starfish and shells near the mirror. It makes it look beachy. I could really feel I'm near a beach.

Very good ways of designing such one side of your house. I guess you really enjoy doing that.
