French Country Mantel

We have had spring like weather the past two weekends so I opted out of finishing touch ups of the beams to spend time with my men. I hope that you will continue to be patient on the reveal. You will get a feel for them in this post though! 
French Country Mantel Vignette- From My Front Porch To Yours

 I did however change out our Valentines Mantel to an every day french country look.
Pastoral Painting-French Country Mantel Vignette- From My Front Porch To Yours
I ordered this picture from Joss & Main last week and was surprised at how quickly it arrived. It was just $45 and I had a $15 credit so it was a win win.

I kept out the candle sticks that Mr. Front Porch and I received as a wedding gift and added a little clock that the Papa made for us.

My most favorite lantern made a return as well as a little sheep that my mama gave me for Christmas.

I do not know if you remember or not but back in December I was sharing on Instagram and Facebook how Mr. Front Porch was helping make my Christmas present.
DIY Vintage Inspired Hymnal Board-French Country Mantel Vignette- From My Front Porch To Yours
Well here it is! I just love my vintage inspired hymnal board we made. I ordered the slides off of Mary & Martha. You can actually purchase a hymnal board from them as well but after I saw it on Hymns & Verses in Doreen's holiday decor I had to have one for Christmas and at the time the only way to get one was to host a party so we made on instead.
DIY Wood Beams-French Country Mantel Vignette- From My Front Porch To Yours
We are just loving our wood beams. You can already tell the dramatic difference it makes in our living room. I am on a time constraint now so this weekend I will be touching up everything and taking pics!;)

Stay warm my friends!

  29. Girl you are so talented! Your whole fireplace area looks fabulous. Mine is styled very similarly but I don't have the pretty chair, church attendance board, etc. Darn it! :) Love following your hard work and beautiful style on Instagram.

  30. Hey,love the mantle decor, but I thought this was going to be a tutorial on how to build that gorgeous mantle. (Sob!) Did you make it, or find plans online? If so, where so I can get?

    1. The mantel itself was put in by the builder. Over the years I updated it with the faux finish you see here in the pic and the shiplap above it. We also updated the surround with the rock tile that is pictured.
