But. I did have some time to work on the mantle.
There are still a few empty spots I'd love to fill in but I'm not sure with what yet. Oh, and if I could get my husband to stop emptying his pockets up there that'd be great too.
The vases are from Big Lots and were $5 each, the fake foliage was $3 each.
I got the basket at Ross for $3 and the decorative wood balls were a set of 3 for $5
We got the elephant wall carving at Goodwill for a bit of nothing. And of course the biggest steal was the mantle itself which we got at the ReStore for $12!
