There is truly only one thing I miss in my home and that is a fireplace. Okay maybe I would only be able to use it once every few years living in South Florida, but ohh the decorating for the holidays I could do ...but no fireplace, no mantle so it was time to create my own.
This month at MMU ( Mid Month University) is yup create your own fireplace and mantle and decorate it to your hearts content. When we got the sample of the Authentique Halloween paper collection Spirited I need to so play with it! It is a perfect collection of tradition and vintage mix for this spooktacular holiday.
Your mantle can be for Thankgiving, Halloween, Everyday and of course Christmas ... just have fun !
The template and the simple 1-2-3 instructions to create yours is below. use the template or make your own ! My fireplace front - I printed off some bricks and covered the template. With molding paste and grey paint I cover it - removing some of the paste so the bricks came thru giving it a worn down look. The fire was a clipart found using google .. I di not save it - sorry ...
You can make and participate as many as you want ...
Your fireplace has to be 3 dimensional .
Winner will be chosen after 8:00pm on the 14th via random.org
All other challenge rules apply
The RAK - well that is a Boo-tiful surprise - Happy Decorating !!!
