In my mind, tulips and daffodils are the quintessential springtime flowers. The weathered mantel and stone fireplace offers a lovely contrast to the bright and airy spring flowers.

This mantel from Mamas Dance perfectly blends nature with subtle rustic touches.

9. Colorful Chic

More tulips and bunnies!

Nothing says “spring” more than these two images. DIY Show Off’s bright tulips contrast the neutral, rustic tones of the other iconic springtime images: white bunnies, a wooden birdhouse, an antique birdcage with a nestful of eggs.

10. Antlers and Eucalyptus Leaves

Minimalist can be eye-catching, as is this example from Marci Schneider. Antlers, eucalyptus leaves, a circle mirror, and just a few other small pieces allow for a design that is easy to replicate.

It doesn’t matter whether you are talking about paint colors or general decor, neutrals are all the rage right now. Stone Gable has everything a good modern farmhouse neutral mantel should in this spring mantel design: shutters, chippy window, and various neutral shades.

I love the bright, spring-like pops of white, lime green, and bright blue against the stone fireplace and beautiful vintage clock face from Duke Manor Farm.
