Football takes over our house this time of year. I thought it was fitting to create a football themed mantel. Of course, we had to represent both of our teams – the Bulldawgs (the high school team my husband coaches) and the Texas Longhorns!
Found an old green frame and added simple vinyl lines and numbers to create this football frame:

Very cute! My husband LOVES football (of course, we are Falcons fans:o) and I would love to use some football stuff to decorate with. But usually when people use it, it looks like the Fan Shop threw up all over their house. This is the first time I’ve seen something cute using it. I love it!
Love this whole setup! I’ll be pinning this on Pinterest AND featuring it on the blog today! Thank you for linking up!
Smiles,
