Woodsmen chic. That's a thing, right? Well, this year it is at my house. Mr. Woodsmen and his cute flannel self inspired my 2014 Christmas mantel.

I paired this woodsmen nutcracker ($10!) with some wooden objects (like my favorite Threshold wooden vase and this wooden star) and trees (these tiny white bottle trees are from JoAnn's). Gotta make my man in plaid comfortable with trees and wood, amiright? I also added some holly leaves from my front yard, my twiggy silver reindeer from year's past, a mason jar with tiny ornaments, some vintage red + green books and this felt holly garland. We use our fireplace all of the time and I didn't want the stockings in the way, so I opted to hang our classic monogrammed velvet stockings on the bookshelf on the other side of the room.

While I'm certainly crushing on Mr. Woodsmen and his awesome beard, I have to say that my favorite part of this year's mantel is the wooden star. It's such a powerful reminder of the reason for the season and the star that led so many to worship the brand new baby Jesus.
