My Fall Fireplace Mantel Decorations.... Simple and Not Overdone

In past years, I've always gone "full speed ahead" with fall decorating, especially with the mantel,  but this year I've decided "less is better".  I didn't buy anything new, though I  have some lovely larger illuminated pieces, but I  simply used some of the smaller, simpler decor that I had on hand in the fall decoration box for a 'not overdone' look.   Is it a bit too simple?20230916_185558.jpg

It looks beautiful. Not too simple at all. I love the textures and the candles and lamp post add a nice warmth. The way you staggered the different heights really looks nice.😊

@ciao_bella Doesn't look too simple at all...just not overdone. I like that. And it's nice to do something different than you have done in the past. When you're feeling "less is more", then that's what you go with! Smiley Happy

A few larger pieces (ie artwork, mirror) would be just as simple but have a bigger statement/impact than a bunch of smaller items do.
