Making a pretty DIY mantle when you are not crafty!

I am not crafty.
Really.
I am just not gifted when it comes to that kind of thing!
But I do love the thought of it!
Since I have this amazing fireplace and gorgeous mantle in my house, I can't help myself when it comes to ideas on making it look pretty!
You can check my Christmas mantle here
And here is my Valentine's Day mantle!
I made the banner with some twine, and some scrap fabric I found at walmart for a total of $4.00.
IIIIIII know!!! I even sewed!

Then I bought an old song book at a thrift store for a dollar and ripped out the pages, rolled them up and put some red ribbon from walmart ($1.97)
I grabbed a draw from an old table we had in the barn and voila!


I know, I know. It's noting fancy.
It's not gonna win an award or anything, but I love it.
And I was actually crafty for once.
Do you have any easy, cheap crafty ideas for my mantle for the next holiday?
