Decorate Your Mantel: A Vintage Fall Mantel with Classic Details

My fall mantel is filled with vintage items in classic autumn colors. 

Today our Decorate Your Mantel blogging friends are back with another season of mantels to share with you!  Autumn colors in their richness and beauty make for an inspiring scene displayed together across a mantel.  With multiple mantels in our home, I now have the opportunity to decorate more than one!  Today, I’m going to show you my mantel in our office.  If you saw my post last week sharing our fall touches in our dining room, you saw that I went neutral and simple with the dining room mantel. In the office, I used traditional autumn colors and vintage items such as brass deer, an antique oil painting, and a painted tray for a full bounty of autumn goodness! I love how this one turned out. It is fall beauty at its best!

A framed chalkboard layered with the painted tray and oil painting became the back drop for this display.  In front of those, I placed an antique brass vase with branches of fall leaves.  A stack of velvet pumpkins in autumn colors are beside the vase. Splayed across the mantel are more fall branches. On the other side of the mantel is a stack of books, a framed fall print and two brass deer to complete the look.  Many of these items are finds from local antique stores or thrift stores.  The velvet pumpkins were purchased last year at Hobby Lobby. 

I hope you like this mantel!  Thanks for always stopping by to say hi!

    Wow, I’m in love with this Amy! The colors, the different decor elements, everything about it! I have those cute deer too, and used them in my bookcase last year around Christmas. They are so cute versatile! Thanks for organizing this again for us this year. It has been fun seeing all the different styles!

    • Amy says:

      Thank you, Iris! It’s funny how sometimes you really have to work at putting a design together and sometimes it just happens. This one just happened and I really love it! Thanks for being a part of this hop!

    I love how rich this mantel feels! The reds and brass are my favorite part! You did an amazing job on this one, Amy!

    • Amy says:

      Thank you, Bre! It came together nicely and I didn’t even have to buy anything new. I guess that may say that I have too much in my “stash!”

  5. Kim says:

    Adorable! I love the layered vintage trays and the deer are perfect for the season. Beautiful job, as always, Amy – thanks for hosting this fun hop!

    • Amy says:

      Thank you, Kim! Those deer have been all over the house. They kind of fit anywhere which is great. I love this hop, glad you could be a part of it!
