New Years Mantel Decor

Simple Quick New Years Decor! On a little low bookshelf in my home I gathered together some of our clocks to create a New Years vignette with old world charm.

 I set the clocks on their sides, and then placed some heavy books in front of them to keep the clocks from toppling over.



 Added a little bell from our Christmas tree to the mix.


If we were going to be home for New Years Eve I would leave the clocks set to their real time as it would be fun to watch them all tick tock down to midnight.


 But, this year we will be with celebrating with my husbands parents so I set and left them all at midnight.


This little clock is one of my newest finds, I love it's vintage-ness.


 Collecting pretty clocks is a habit I picked up from my father who's house if full of them.


Happy New Year!!
