  • A Touch of Easter: Style your mantel with a few decorations, including pastel-colored eggs, bunny figurines, and spring bulbs, for a festive touch that hints of Easter to come.
  • Botanical and Greenery Focus: Highlight natural elements by using potted plants, herbs, or single stems in minimalist vases to emphasize a fresh and organic look.
  • Whimsical Touches: Add playful elements like colorful garlands, artwork, prints, signs to create a fun and cheerful atmosphere that captures the spirit of the season.
