Christmas Mantels-24 Classic & Exquisite Favorites

Christmas Mantels-24 Classic & Exquisite Favorites

Table of Contents

Hi Everyone,

It’s another busy week, and I figure you’re busy too and need a break to soothe the senses.

Today, I’m posting 16 of my favorite Christmas Mantels or Holiday Mantels if you don’t celebrate Christmas but still want to decorate your fireplace mantel for the holidays.

 

However, before we get started, if you’ve purchased the Six Figure Income Blogger (A must if you’d like to get business from your website), you should have an email from SendOwl stating that there’s been an update.

 

If you don’t see it, please check your spam folder. If you’ve changed your email address, haven’t forwarded your email, and don’t have access to that email, you won’t receive it.

In that case, please email me at admin at laurel bern interiors dot com. And, please give me 24 hours to get back to you. I’ll see that you get a new link. However, if you do have an old link, it will give you the updated 3rd edition.

 

Okay, let’s immerse ourselves in the beauty of the holiday season with 30 of my favorite classic and exquisite Christmas fireplace mantels.

Oh, that looks a lot like one of the Laurel Home Essential Paint Collection colors – Benjamin Moore tranquil blue 2051-60

I thought it would be fun to begin with this beautiful dining room in non-traditional Christmas colors. I love these colors!  It’s so festive, and if you wanted to put them up in October with a few little pumpkins, you could enjoy the decor for a few months.

Okay, no mantel. It’s my bookcase when I decorated it in 2015 and then photographed it in the dark (with my old Canon that I no longer use.) I’m not kidding. It was DARK. The color is nothing like this, and it wasn’t easy to get it as close as I did without completely washing everything else out.

Okay. If you don’t know this Insta page, you must check it out. I insist. The owner is indeed a man. Greg Penn is the name. And, as you can see, above and below has elegant taste with a unique English flair. However, if you met him out and about, you would find him to be a rather burly, bushy bearded guy who looks like he’s on his way back to the cabin after a day of bushwhacking.

 

Well, it just shows you can’t judge an artist by the amount of facial hair he has.

 

The other thing is he purchased this huge 18-room antique home and is renovating it one room at a time, all by himself. Bless him. Fortunately, he’s still quite young.

Man has numerous other Christmas mantels to check out.

She’s frighteningly cool.

This is for the minimalists out there. And people who aren’t too fond of green.

Maybe a Christmas-time wedding? Or, just a beautiful mantel with red roses. I suppose most people wanting this arrangement to last for a month or longer would use silk flowers. Sorry, I don’t know the source of the image. If you do, please let me know, and I’ll add it in.

Above and below These Christmas mantels are from the beautiful page of interior designer Tessa Folley.

Her website says she’s booked until 2024, and when you see her Insta, you’ll know why. Everything she does is gorgeous and accessible. I noticed she has a pic of the new Beacon Hill Bookstore. So, I thought, maybe she lives in or near Boston.

 

Well, I had to search numerous pages for at least two minutes before finding out she lives in Cincinnati.

 

However, Tessa’s physical address is nowhere to be seen. In her case, it doesn’t matter. She has more business than she can handle. However, if you’re not as established and trying to grow your local business, you MUST have your name and complete business address on every page of your website, in the footer.

Why? This is so that when Google crawls your website, he’ll know where you LIVE. And, if you want to be one of the lucky ones in your area to show up on Google’s local map when people search for your type of business or service, your physical address must be there.

 

But, Laurel, I work from my home, and I have young children. I don’t want the ENTIRE world to know where I live.

 

  • First of all, please don’t But, Laurel me. ;] Thank you.
  • Second of all, the ENTIRE world already knows where you live.

That is if they really want to know. It is all available on the World Wide Web in hundreds of online directories. It’s all there. Your birthdate, phone number(s), email address(es) and physical address(es), and much more.

In any case, once someone knows WHERE you live, what are you imagining they will do to you? Please, think about it.

As I always say, “All stalkers are welcome, just bring enough food and water to share with the alley rats.”

 

I mean, unless you’re in the witness protection program or there’s a contract out on your life, there’s no excuse.

 

That is– if you want to effectively use your website to get more business coming your way. And even if someone wants to kill you badly enough, they’ll find you whether your address is listed on your website or not.

What I’m trying to say is; if you want local or any business, listing your physical address is an easy and effective SEO (Search Engine Optimization) hack. No, not a P.O. Box; the business’s physical address.

In addition, your potential customers shouldn’t have to spend two minutes searching to find out if they live anywhere near you.

 

Most people will click off your website and continue searching for someone who’s made it clear they are local.

 

This is the sort of thing among hundreds of others you will learn in the newly updated Six-Figure Income Blogger. It is not only for bloggers. The idea is that you can manage your content daily by you, a non-geek (or geekette) without a developer. This way, you can add things to the website to keep it fresh and let Googs know you’re alive.

He needs to know that too.

 

It took me years to learn all of this stuff. I know because I was making these same mistakes.

 

It works. I’m walking proof. This and all of my guides are worth far more than I’m charging. I guarantee you’ll learn things you had no idea you were doing wrong.

 

In addition, my rockin’ interior design and the blogging guide are currently ON SALE through December 28th.

 

In January, everything is going higher than before the sale. You can learn more about all of my guides by going here.

In the blogging guide, you’ll learn all about SEO and writing, how to bring gobs of traffic to your site, and much more.

 

One thing I just added to the new edition of the Six Figure Income Blogger are dozens of phenomenally annoying clichés you must try not to use in your writing, for example:

 

BUT I DIGRESS

 

Who cares? If it’s not relevant, don’t say it. Otherwise, it sounds like you’re apologizing for wasting people’s time.

 

Get the guide. Get all of them! (Help me pay for my new kitchen! lol)

 

  • You can thank me later.
  • Gifting is available. Yes, any of the guides make a fantastic Christmas Gift!
  • I’ve also created numerous bundles for additional savings.

 

Okay, we will now resume our regularly scheduled program and look at more beautiful Christmas mantels.

I love Jack Laver Brister’s moody, terribly English style of decorating. I love a lot of things as long they are done well.

Where is your Christmas mantel this year, Laurel?

Who do you think I am? Carolyne Roehm or something? ;]

My Christmas mantel is this post. :]

Actually, Cale decorated it for me this year. It’s terribly cute, just like him!

I am enjoying my little Suzanne Kasler tabletop tree immensely.

I have the three-footer. Oh, it’s on sale right now! Only $59.40!

I think I’m going to leave it up until Valentine’s Day.

It says Reece and Paul, but it looks like one of them is a little camera-shy. Their style is sophisticated and on the masculine side, but there’s a healthy amount of yin to balance it out. Nicely done!

Nora Murphy is incredibly talented. Her home is nothing but delightful. This is her insta account.

It looks like most of her feed is devoted to a charming shop.

Whoa! This English chap does FLOWERS! Quite splendid, and there are some very sumptuous Christmas mantels, too.

What blog post having anything to do with a fireplace mantel and styling would be complete without at least one pic from Steve? Everything he touches turns to gold.

I adore Steve’s minimalist holiday design. You really don’t have to gild the lily. (sorry about the cliché. Once in a while, it’s okay.)

True, this one doesn’t shout out Christmas. However, with a room this lovely, all it needs is a few greens and some lights, and it’s holiday-ready. But, wowwy! If you love the colorful, tasteful maximalist new trad design (and a dude with a man-bun), you will adore Jared’s Insta feed. His work is gorgeous!

 

Okay, I hope you enjoyed this post about Christmas mantels. It’s only 11 days until Christmas.

 

***Please be sure to buy ALL of my guides. ;] (But, I’ll be thrilled if you only get one.)

Also, please check out the newly updated HOT SALES and also the beautiful HOLIDAY SHOP.

This post with dozens of affordable gifts might be helpful.

There’s also my interior design and garden book list.

Thanks so much, too, for your kind comments after Sunday’s post. I was very touched.

xo,
