Organic Modern Spring Mantel Decorating Ideas
This year, my spring mantel looks a variety of ways. This is the last time it will be decorated with the current fireplace design. So, I decided to try a few different looks to share!
In the coming weeks, we are completely remodeling our fireplace to add stone and I’m excited to share it with you.
For now, let’s take a look at my organic modern spring mantel decorating ideas.
Main Design Elements of Organic Modern Design
There are a few main elements to consider when implementing organic modern design. You can get a full breakdown of this design style in these posts:
For my spring mantel decorating ideas this year, I wanted to be sure and include these organic modern elements:
- Modern
- Metal mirror to modernize the space.
- Cozy candles
- Organic
- Organic artwork
- Live plants
- Organic pottery with a handmade appearance (Use code SHOPGIMS for 10% of the Lera vase)
- Spring Specific
- Tulips for that needed spring nod
- Brass to warm up the design
The key to the organic modern decorating style is combining warm and cold, old and new, organic and man-made. This gives the space interest, character and contrast.
My barn beam mantel also really helps achieve the organic modern look because it is a naturally weathered mantel and full of character. You won’t believe how this barn beam mantel came to be in our home! You can learn more about it in this post.

It is a very simple foundational backdrop for your mantel and then you can layer in plants, decor or any element that screams spring!
