Over 100 Christmas ornaments sparkle on this mantel, but the look remains refined thanks to the living room's modern furniture and all-white palette.
Sparkly blue decorations (some vintage) are augmented with glistening "snowballs" (Styrofoam balls coated in clear glue and rolled in a box of white glitter). A triptych depicting a snowy scene, painted by homeowner and designer Ian McLeod, repeats the scheme.
