Every January brings cleaning, organizing and re-decorating. One of the areas that always get a fresh makeover in my home is the mantel. I take down the holiday decor and replace it with simple touches like plants, prints and candles. Usually mantels take center focus in a room. Which makes it a great area to spotlight some of your favorite goodies.

To make things really simple, add a large piece of art, a few vases or jars and call it good. The simple look is perfect for an extra modern space.
