Another Mama Mac post! Its the time of the year again, folks. The holidays are right around the corner and it’s time to decorate and make our homes festive for our friends and family.
I’m going to walk you through step-by-step how to create your own Christmas mantle with Command™ Brand hooks and provide you with a few Christmas mantle decorating ideas. They are easy to use, adjustable, and don’t destroy your furniture or walls.
You will need:
- One Box of Command™ Clear Medium Hook (7count – 2 lb hold)
- One Box of Command™ Brand Small Wire Hooks (4 count – .5 lb Hold)
- One Command™ Medium Designer Hook
- One 9 FT pine garland with white lights
- One Box 32pcs Christmas ornaments
- One Pkg of snowflake ornaments
- One large pine wreath
- Two decorative flowers
- One twig and glitz garland for wreath
- 8 mercury glass candle holders
How to decorate your Christmas Mantle:
- Lets start off by wiping down the mantle to remove any unwanted dirt. Allow area to dry.
- Place your 7ct Command™ Clear Medium Hooks from left to right in equal intervals along the mantle front.
- Hang pine garland starting from left to right. Play with it to give it the right about of draping. You don’t want it too tight!
- Now lets hang the ornaments! I like to start with what I consider my pop color and distribute it evenly throughout my garland. Then hang your neutral colors. I added blue snowflakes at the end for an extra POP!
- Next use the Command™ Clear Mini Hooks to hang the stockings. We have five lovely people living in this house so I used all 5 hooks. Space them out evenly and hang under the mantle. Hang your stockings!
- For the wreath, I highly recommend using the Command™ Medium Designer Hook. It’s strong and can handle the weight. Decorate your wreath as you see fit- I used a silver garland and two glittered flowers.
- Give your mantle a little extra romance with some mercury glass candle holders, and you are done! Light that fire, get some hot cocoa, and enjoy your hard work.
I have always used Command™ Brand hooks in my holiday decorating. They’re easy-to-use, come off clean, and can handle any decorating task I put them up to. I often change my mind in the middle of decorating, and the ability to remove hooks without a scratch or hassle really make these my favorite decor item each holiday season. Make sure you stock up on Command™ Brand hooks at Walmart for all you decorating needs!
Your mantle is beautiful and I love the blue and silver color scheme! It’s so wintery and pretty! And don’t get me started on that little cutie pie in her matching dress!
This is beautiful, I love the white fireplace! I’m jealous of those who still have real fireplaces in their homes.
I love decorating my mantel. I really like how you added the wood piece in the middle of the wreath!
You can’t do Christmas without command hooks! I love your mantel and your cute little elf by the fireplace! 🙂
This is beautiful. I love it. I have to pin it for next year.
I love the color combination of blue, white, and silver in your decor! I wish I had a mantle but they’re pretty rare here in Florida!
This is gorgeous! I love the color combination and how cute is Miss Henley?!
Wow this is a clever tutorial, I love the combinations and a few little things.
Can’t wait to decorate mine, it’s really exciting and yours are look fabulous!
This is so pretty and those command hooks are perfect to decorate with something you don’t want there all year long!
I am super impressed that you removed your TV. That takes a lot of work. I love the wreath, too. I love command hooks and we use them every year. We use the ones that hold up to 25 lbs. Our stockings are heavy!
This is gorgeous!! What a great idea to hang Christmas balls on the garland. The blue and white is so chic. Love this!
We don’t have a mantel but we make a make-shift one to be able to hang the stockings on. I think that this could totally work for that.
Wow beautiful mantle. I love decorating for the holidays and commands make it so easy.
This looks to great, Jessica! Love the colors you chose, too! Command strips are by bff during the holidays!
Your mantle is absolutely gorgeous! It’s been years since I’ve had a mantle to decorate but this year we built in a fireplace so I have a mantle…and this definitely gets me inspired!
Omg how fabulous does your mantle look!?!?! I’m loving the stockings.wayyy too cute!!
