I made mine a little more colorful, and I made my own pattern so they would fit perfectly on my mantle.

I’m a little addicted to Photoshop I think. Shhhhh, it’s fine, I’ve embraced my crazy traits.

I almost stopped painting the stripes at this point because I loved the birch wood peeking through, but I didn’t think it would look as good with my barn wood mantle, so I painted on.

I painted most of the stripes with my trusty Behr flat paint samples, but I added in a few craft paint colors too.

After the stripes dried, I sealed them with my new favorite sealer product, Rust-Oleum Chalked Matte Clear Topcoat.

I love my colorful mantle this year!
