Blue and Green Spring Mantel
Spring decorating is in full force this week at my house. Yesterday I shared my spring sitting room and today I’m sharing the other side of the room. A spring mantel, which is decorated with a few blue and green items that caught my eye in my favorite store.
During a recent trip to Cocoon in Geneva, I spied beautiful vases in shades of blue and green. Cocoon is located in an historic home and I love wandering from room to room, knowing that each space holds something wonderful.
I saw the little glazed vases in the third room. The third room always holds my favorite finds.
And I knew I had to have these beauties for my spring mantel.
Then I saw this sweet little landscape canvas propped on its little easel and I knew I was a goner.
The colors in both the paintings I chose pair perfectly with the glazed vases.
The spring wreath above the mantel looks like it’s made of beer hops. I’m pretty sure that’s what it is. For the record, I don’t like beer. I prefer a glass of red wine.
Faux branches are tucked inside the larger green vases on my spring mantel.
What’s nice about the vases and mini canvases is that I can group them elsewhere to create new vignettes.
Let’s hope spring comes sooner rather than later!
Beautiful mantelscape Jennifer! … I love the color scheme and those canvases were the perfect touch!!
Thanks so much, Shirley! I have to admit my heart skipped a bit when I saw the canvases!
Those two paintings are beautiful! The vases match them perfectly. I adore those colors!
Thanks, Amanda. I love the paintings. The store had a couple more scenes in fall colors – I might have to go back and snag them for fall. 🙂
You have such a gift for putting small items together. I do use some of your ideas but I can’t say they look as good as yours. Oh well.
Thanks Jeanne! I’m sure your vignettes are beautiful!! 🙂
Jennifer, adore the small canvasses. They can be used so many times. The wreath is pretty. Not a beer 🍺 drinker either. A nice glass of wine 🍷 every time.

Thanks, Cindy. There’s something about a fine glass of wine!
I love small paintings like those that you can display and they do match those vases so very well, wonderful find.
Thanks, Marlene. I felt so lucky when I found the paintings and bottles all in one spot!
Love everything especially the canvases. Does the store have a website where I can order them?
Hi Debby. The store does have a website, but they don’t sell online. You could contact them though and they’d probably ship the canvases to you. You’ll find them here: http://www.cocoononline.com/
Amazing Spring decorating tips! I loved them all, especially the vases. They are so elegant and classy. Thanks for sharing!
So so sweet and pretty, Jenn! I love those sweet little vases and canvases. So glad you could be part of this hop!
how perfect are those vases with the art work.. and fyi i don’t like beer either.
Hi Jennifer! Just finishing the mantel tour today! Loving your greens and all the pieces you used to style your mantel. Beautiful job! xoxo
I love your spring mantel. I think I need to find some small paintings like you have!
