SPRING MANTEL

I love this old copper umbrella I found at the flea market. I wonder if maybe it was once an umbrella stand. There was no way to stand it up but I had a hanger welded on the back, so I could hang it on the porch. I paid maybe five dollars for the umbrella, but 40 dollars for the welding! Next time I would just drill a couple of holes and use wire to hang it!
 Looking like spring now, even tho it will be in the 30's tonight. I am ready for warm weather to stay and stop teasing us! Since taking this photo I have changed out the wreath, it was just too small.  I am joining Kim at http://www.savvysouthernstyle.net  for Wow Us Wednesday.
