I have filled the mantle with some of my favorite things…giant chalkboard…old hymnals…apothecary jars…antique doorknob…shells and a nest. The large apothecary jar is filled with found treasures including shells, starfish, paw print of the best dog in the world. I change the chalkboard often, usually hymn verses that I find meaningful.
I like to tell the Rev that the chalkboard is an evangelism tool…when hosting ladies from my volunteer organization I always have someone comment on it and ask me about church! I am not sure he is as excited my home decor as I am!
