How to Decorate a Fall Mantle- Jennifer Decorates

Hello and happy fall. I'm Jennifer from JD's All About Home and today I'm going to show you how to make a beautiful fall mantle. So let's get started. All of the fall decor that I'm going to use today can be purchased at JD's All About Home so if you live locally you come on by and check us out. So I love to keep candlesticks on my mantle all year long but before I begin decorating it I'm going to remove them because knowing me I'm going to knock them off. So let me do that real quick and we'll be good to go. Alright to decorate my fall mantle you just need two garland. They're six foot. You've got one end of the garland that's finished off and another end that they kind of put a hook like this so you can hook them together but we want to camouflage that because we're going to place this on the middle of the mantle and try to find your middle point. Okay I've got the garland centered on the mantle so now what we want to do is we want to take that garland and kind of tuck it around the mantle right here otherwise it's just kind of sticking out. The next important thing to do is to really fluff your garland. I notice a lot of people don't do that or they forget to do it. Fluff it whether it's fall or Christmas it makes a huge difference and gives it a natural airy look. Another thing I like to do is pull some of the garland over the mantle let it kind of cascade a little bit over and it gives it just a great natural look. So the last thing I'm going to do to the mantle is I'm going to add some adorable little white berries. I love these same concept that we talked about with the garland spread them out and they're wired which I love. So I'm going to tuck it into the garland and then still spread it out. It adds just a pop of color and because I've spread that one stem out I've covered this much of the garland so I'm only going to need probably eight stems to finish this mantle.
