Mantel and More

The sweet girls at Ask Kari & Kijsa have asked us to show our mantels today.  I can hardly wait to see all of the beautifully decorated mantels.

This is a picture of our mantel that I tried to take last night.  It is not a good picture at all - I just couldn't get the lighting right.  The oil lamp on the left belonged to my great grandmother, and the clock on the right belonged to my husband's great-grandfather.

This is a picture I had of our fireplace decorated for the Christmas holiday.
