This year my Fall Mantel is SUPER SIMPLE. By far my favorite part is the ruffle banner that I made.

Simply buy 1-2 yards of orange felt. Cut it into 2-3 inch wide strips. The goal is to be consistent. If you choose to cut the strips 3 inches wide, cut them all at 3 inches wide.

Use a simple needle and any kind of thread to create a ruffle. (see how I ran the string through the middle of each ruffle?) I didn’t measure or anything, just eyeballed it. I love the way it turned out! Make your own before Thanksgiving!Have a great Thursday!
