Are you ready for holiday decorating? I can’t wait to get moved next week and pull out all of my holiday decor! I always design/create a few new things each year and I’m sure this year will be no different!  This project is certainly inspiring this year’s decor! You may have seen my last post where I shared the first style, which was glam, white and glittery from our One Mantel, Three Ways for the Holidays for DIY Network. If you missed it, be sure to check it out right here. Today, I am excited to share the second style, which is a traditional look featuring plaid (oh-s0-popular right now), velvet stockings + classic pine trees and pine cones. For this mantel, we created 3 easy DIY Projects to help you create a festive holiday focal point in your home.
