Vintage Farmhouse Spring Mantel with Free Spring Printables
I decorated our mantel for Spring with repurposed vintage decor, second-hand finds and some free printable artwork.
I love decorating without buying new and spending money, so this spring mantel was fun to put together, mainly from repurposing items I had in my basement or in other areas of the house.
I’m sharing two of the spring printables I used on my mantel so you can use them as free spring decor as well!
Here’s how I used many of those vintage items to decorate my farmhouse inspired mantel for Spring!
Free Spring Printables
I found these two botanical prints at a garage sale and snagged them up right away. They’re even double sided, so I can change them up later.
I also made a quick “hello Spring” graphic that I printed on an old book page. Here’s the tutorial on how to make easy wood signs with a wood frame.
You can grab both of these spring printables by signing up to receive updates on Refresh Living content below.
I’ve used this green window in most of my seasonal mantels during this past year. I love the green, and the height it gives to the space.
When I brought home two vintage spools a couple of weeks ago, I realized I had started a collection of something that I didn’t even know I was collecting! I’m always drawn to the natural look of spools, and I’ve been picking them up when I see them at garage sales lately. I finally put them all together for the first time here.
When I think of Spring, the color that comes to my mind first is green. It’s also my favorite color, so I made sure to work in some greens to this otherwise neutral mantel.
Although I never want to get started decorating my mantel, I always enjoy it when I’m done. And since it’s snowing right now, I know I still have quite a bit of time before this springtime mantel needs to come down.

Love your ideas, Jenny! I’m sure it’s me but where are the ‘vintage botanical prints’? I THINK I’ve looked in the graphics library but I’m not seeing it. Thanks! 🙂
Hi Jeryl! They are in the graphics library, but pretty much near the bottom of the page, under seasonal decor. The photo you’ll see is the print attached to a magnetic frame (if that helps). If you can’t find it, send me an email (jenny@refreshliving.net) and I’ll send you the links!
