Electric fireplaces and mantels are a great way to add a non-permanent focal point to any room. They work great in living rooms and bedrooms, plus they are so fun to decorate.

After you add a fireplace or mantel let’s get to decorating it: Spring Mantel Decor, Christmas Mantel Ideas, Thanksgiving Mantels, and even Back to School Mantel Decor.

This is a cool idea for hiding a TV over a fireplace. I also like adding vases, these are on the side, but they would go great on top of a modern mantel.

Compliment built-ins or faux built-ins with a fireplace. Style the shelves and the top of the mantel similarly. A TV or a beautiful piece of art is a great way to bring together a mantel.

Another example of a TV, the other great idea from this space is to add an electric fireplace in front of a feature wall. IT would create a similar look to this living room.

Simply add a framed piece of art on top of a mantel for a more minimalist decor look. Add freestanding shelves on either side for more design elements.

Or rather than a piece of art of TV, add a mirror. This round mirror looks great with a white fireplace. Add a couple of candles on top of the mantel to finish off the look.

Another way to use a mirror, place it on the mantel and use a unique shape with an arched top to draw the eye up!
