The new mantle is installed & I'm loving it!! It's exactly what was needed....I think it looks amazing...
The before....when the fireplace was constructed I was adamant back then I didn't want a mantle....the previous fireplace was huge & took up most of the wall....and had a thin mantle....
The first one looks muted....the colours are a bit more vibrant....such a fall feeling to it...
This one is equally as soft & cozy....and great for pulling a puffer vest on over...and it's equally soft & cozy....with a bit of a turtleneck....the colour is gorgeous....
We're attending a couple of "spooky" events later in the month....the first being held in an old Victorian heritage house located in the downtown area of the city.....Beaconsfield is the name of the mansion...built in 1877....ghost stories, tour & music should be an entertaining evening....
The second event...we are participating with our friend & his wife....plan to enjoy a meal beforehand...and then take in a "ghost" tour around the city...... with our tour director being a "grave digger"! All in the spirit and fun of Hallowe'en....
My mouth is healing...my recheck appointment with the oral surgeon is later this week. I pushed my dentist appointment (to have temporary crowns & bridge put in place).... back an additional couple of weeks. I am no where near healed enough & suspect the surgery was more invasive than previously anticipated....(there are stitches as well).....
The swelling is down....and still no pain. Soreness....but no pain & four more days with rounds of antibiotics....
Join me later today over at https://betweennapsontheporch.net/ for Metamorphis Monday and again tomorrow at https://www.myslicesoflife.com/ for Talking About It Tuesdays...
Thank you ever so much for spending a bit of your time with me....
Til next time....
