Welcome to First Parish in Wayland
We are a Unitarian Universalist congregation that values community, religious freedom, and social justice. We are a Welcoming Congregation and a Green Sanctuary. Our doors and our hearts are open! To learn more about Unitarian Universalism, click here.
What's New at First Parish?
Our Statement Condemning Religious Violence
Our Parish Committee, the elected board of our congregation, recently voted to approve a formal statement supporting our Islamic neighbors and condemning violence conducted under of the guise of religious faith. Read the full statement here.
Happy Anniversary to Us!
Lately at First Parish we've been thinking a lot about what's old, rather that what's new.
That's because 2015 marks two important milestones for our congregation: 375 years since our gathering in 1640, and 200 years since the completion and dedication of our beautiful Meetinghouse, the fifth one in our history.
Throughout 2015, we will create ways to celebrate our history, honor our predecessors, and express our gratitude to the Town of Wayland.
The early history of First Parish and the Town of Wayland are intertwined. Prior to the separation of church and state in 1833 — Massachusetts was the last state to sever the ties — the First Parish minister was selected and hired by the town, and the First Parish meetinghouses were home to Town Meetings and other public business as well as Sunday services.
The Rev. John Burt Wight, ordained in 1815 at the same time that our current Meetinghouse was dedicated, was the last minister to serve both the town and the church. You can read or hear all about this era and the changes that took place in the years that followed, in a sermon delivered by the Rev. Ken Sawyer, First Parish's Minister Emeritus, on January 25, 2015.
Our minister, the Rev. Dr. Stephanie May, invited Rev. Sawyer to join her in the pulpit to kick off our anniversary year. Ken Sawyer served First Parish for 38 years, retiring in 2012.
During the coming year, we look forward to learning more about our history, and how it reflects the history of our town and nation. We are grateful that, just like our predecessors did, we are able to share our joys, our sorrows, and our questions with a vibrant and loving community, and worship in the exquisite Meetinghouse that once served as a place of both civic and religious life in Wayland.
For more detailed information about the five meetinghouses that have served First Parish and the Town of Wayland since the first one was built in 1642, click here.
Sunday Worship
March 1, 2015, 10:00 a.m.
Please join us Sunday morning as the Rev. Dr. Stephanie May presents a sermon titled "Of Ultimate Value." Determining what really matters when faced with competing demands for our attention, resources and energy can be very difficult. Gathering together for worship can remind us what is of ultimate value.
We are a Unitarian Universalist congregation that affirms human dignity, community action, freedom of religious thought, and the power of love.
Religious Education
Our church views religious education and spiritual development as an integral part of every person's life, in every stage and every age, for children, youth and adults. Come learn with us as we seek to build meaningful lives.
Social Action
Our church is actively engaged in community service and social justice work throughout the region as we strive to make a positive difference in the world.

Face to Face: Call the shots
by Ben Roberts on Jul 10, 2011RELATED ARTICLES: Face to Face: Colin Bird, URS/Scott Wilson | Face to face: Leader by design | Face to face: First rate
Expansion around the GCC appears to be something of a game of chess for the chairman of the Al Fara'a Group. Adel Saleh has many different pieces to move in the form of a general contracting company and eight construction-related companies across materials, manufacturing and property within the group.
All the companies are seeking to be the leaders in their fields, and all, it seems, have a competitive offering to Saudi Arabia's construction market that will replicate the kind of strategy that has made the group a dominant force in the UAE.
As Al Fara'a General Contracting gains final approval as a certified contractor in the kingdom, Unibeton Ready Mix, one of Al Fara'a Group's crown jewels, has already mobilised to start claiming a stake in the booming market. And it is not doing things by halves.
"Unibeton has started production one week back," Saleh told CW in April, sitting in the company's Al Ain office. "It is the largest batch plant in Saudi, and our production is 400m3 per hour. We also have a branch for construction, Al Fara'a General Contracting, and the aluminium and the electromechanical division," he adds.
The Al Fara'a Group has one of the strongest sets of construction companies under its banner. The general contracting company and Unibeton Ready Mix is also joined by Al Fara'a Properties, Belgium Aluminium & Glass Industries, Al Sabbagh Electromechanical and further lines in precast concrete, steel structure and interiors and joinery.
The contracting arm and a number of the material companies have won industry awards, most recently the Dubai Quality Award for Unibeton Ready Mix, which is the first company to introduce self-compacting concrete to the UAE.
Al Fara'a's ability to compete across the construction chain is one of the company's growth drivers. The contracting arm is classified as an 'unlimited' company in Dubai, meaning it can work on projects of any size and height, and a 'special' contractor in Abu Dhabi.
Today, Al Fara'a General Contracting has to be patient in its entry into the Gulf's biggest construction market, says Saleh, noting that it takes time not only to register, but to gain special classification that will allow it to bid for government projects. Even the big companies have to start from the beginning.
"We have had to move step by step [in Saudi]. It will not be at 'one time'. It takes a maximum of two years to establish there. For one year now we have been working on it. We have to keep in mind the bureaucratic elements; it is a bit complicated. The process is easier in the UAE compared to Saudi," says Saleh.
"We have appointed a country manager, a qualified engineer. He has started pricing the jobs with the private sector. [In terms of the] government sector, we are waiting for the classification department, and then we can go ahead with government jobs. For private sector jobs you can work to any amount, any project. With the government, it is not allowed: you need the classification."

Tony Stewart hasn't been back on the race track since his Sprint car struck and killed a fellow driver earlier this month, and at this rate it's looking like the three-time NASCAR champion's "comeback" season may be over. Stewart is skipping the Saturday night race at Bristol Motor Speedway, making the short Tennessee oval the fourth race and the third Sprint Cup event he's missed since the death of Kevin Ward Jr. The team he co-owns, Stewart-Haas Racing, said he's taking it week-by-week, but with only two races left, it's increasingly likely that the driver they call "Smoke" won't be behind the wheel until at least next year.
Bar Refaeli is the newest host for X Factor Israel, but even supermodels need a break sometimes. The 29-year-old Sports Illustrated Swim model shared two photos of her wearing bikinis Thursday. She captioned one of the photos, "Can you tell I haven't been working for 15 hours straight!? #nofilter." Since she's been a host on the show, ratings have skyrocketed, which is pretty unsurprising considering her spread in Sports Illustrated Swim a few years ago. We still can't believe Leonardo DiCaprio dumped her.
Reuters is reporting that Russia has allowed popular anti-government blogger Alexei Navalny out of prison after serving a fifteen-day sentence for handing out pamphlets promoting a protest rally. This comes a week after Russian opposition leader Boris Nemtsov was shot seven times just steps away from the Kremlin. Now one of the few men frequently named as someone who could lead the charge against Putin has been released into what appears to be an increasingly more tense and dangerous Russia. Navalny has been vocal in his opposition to Putin's Russia, notably having exposed a $4 billion dollar corruption scheme. As a result of this and other damnations, both Navalny and his brother, have been targeted by the government and faced multiple politically-charged arrests. With Navalny's younger brother Oleg currently in prison serving a three and a half year sentence for fraud. In spite of all these deterrents, Navalny still appears primed to take on Putin. Having spoken out against government actions on his blog, while still in prison earlier this week. Hopefully Nalvany will be able to continue speaking freely, in spite of present dangers.
Leading Russian opposition figure Alexei Navalny was released Friday after spending 15 days in custody and vowed that he and his supporters will not be intimidated by the slaying of a top Kremlin critic. Navalny, the driving force behind mass protests in Moscow three years ago, said the killing of opposition leader Boris Nemtsov will not lead him to scale down his campaign against President Vladimir Putin's government. Before his death, Nemtsov was working on a report about Russian involvement in the war in eastern Ukraine.
Treasury Secretary Jacob Lew warned Congress Friday that the federal government will once again bump up against the debt ceiling later this month, and once again asked members to raise the debt ceiling. Lew wrote to the House and Senate leaders that quote "beginning on Monday, March 16, the outstanding debt of the United States will be at the statutory limit." Lew's letter will start the latest agonizing process in which Congress will again have to grapple with the exploding national debt.
Thousands of people in India and other countries across the world will celebrate the arrival of spring with the Hindu Holi Festival on March 6. Holi takes its name from the Hindu demoness Holika, who was burned to death by Vishnu. The festival of colors the following day celebrates Krishna and the god's playful nature. The bright colors — derived from plants and natural elements like turmeric, palash, beetroot, neem, dhak and kumkum — will adorn revelers' faces, clothes and even city streets.

Fire communications shift manager Jaron Phillips said a 10m by 10m prefab classroom was "totally involved" in fire when their three fire crews arrived about 10.45pm.
Phillips said fire didn't appear to be in any danger of catching other buildings alight and he were confident firefighters would be able to bring it under control.
He said a fire safety investigator had been called but it was too early to say what the cause of the fire was.

House passes Iran sanctions bill to slash oil exports
The House of Representatives easily passed a bill on Wednesday to tighten sanctions on Iran, showing a strong message to Tehran over its disputed nuclear program days before President-elect Hassan Rouhani is sworn in.
The vote also highlighted a growing divide between Congress and the Obama administration on Iran policy ahead of international talks on the nuclear program in coming months. Iran insists the nuclear program is purely for civilian purposes.
The bill, which passed 400 to 20, would cut Iran's oil exports by another 1 million barrels per day over a year, in an attempt to reduce the flow of funds to the nuclear program. It is the first sanctions bill to put a number on exactly how much Iran's oil exports would be cut.
The legislation provides for heavy penalties for buyers who do not find alternative supplies, limits Iran's access to funds in overseas accounts and penalises countries trading with Iran in other industrial sectors.
Previous US and EU sanctions have reduced Iran's oil exports by more than half. The United States has worked with Iran's top oil consumers including China, Japan and South Korea to push them toward alternative suppliers of crude.
Oil prices have remained relatively steady, which has allowed the efforts to continue, but some analysts say further sanctions risk pushing up prices and damaging the economies of US allies.
"This is almost like an embargo on Iranian oil imports. It is like giving Iran an ultimatum," a Seoul-based refining source said, after the vote. "I think we can find alternatives but we prefer Iranian crude as the economics is better. If very little Iranian crude is available, overall oil prices would rise."
The bill still has to be passed in the Senate and signed by President Barack Obama before becoming law. The Senate Banking Committee is expected to introduce a similar measure in September, though it is uncertain whether the language to cut exports by 1 million barrels a day will survive.
Critics of the bill said it shows an aggressive signal to Iran that last month voted in Rouhani, a cleric many see as more moderate. He will be sworn in on Sunday.

Ex-Rays coach George Hendrick visits camp
02/25/15 The HeaterPORT CHARLOTTE — George Hendrick stopped by Rays camp Wednesday to say hello — and goodbye.
Replaced as first-base coach and reassigned to a special adviser role with no defined duties, Hendrick, 65, said he did not expect to be around the team much so he wanted to visit before the players got too busy.
And he said that after 47 years in uniform — including four All-Star selections and two World Series championships as a player — he has had enough and was looking ahead to retirement....
Rays' Balfour rushes to Australia for cancer-stricken father
02/25/15 The HeaterPORT CHARLOTTE — Reliever Grant Balfour left Rays camp to fly home to Australia as his cancer-stricken father took a turn for the worse.
"Grant's trying to get back there and see him," Rays manager Kevin Cash said Wednesday.
Balfour last visited in December and said that when he left, he knew it might be the last time he saw David, who was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in 2010. The cancer has spread to his stomach, neck and brain....
Live from Port Charlotte: Balfour leaves camp, Hendrick visits
02/25/15 BlogUPDATE, 1:25: The Rays got their work in despite some light rain.
Some further news/notes:
* LHP Drew Smyly did not throw a bullpen session with the other pitchers in his group, but he and manager Kevin Cash said that was by design as he prefers a slightly different program than the Rays use. Smyly will throw bullpens every third day, instead of every other as the other pitchers, and will throw more each time. As a result, he also will make one less exhibition appearance, not debuting until March 10-11....
Drew Smyly says he has no issue with Yoan Moncada, just the system
02/24/15 The HeaterPORT CHARLOTTE — Rays LHP Drew Smyly said he has no issue with Cuban free agent INF Yoan Moncada or the $31.5 million he reportedly got from the Red Sox.
But it's the system that let Moncada cash in while amateurs from the United States and other countries can't that Smyly criticized in a Twitter post that became a topic of considerable digital and actual discussion Tuesday....
Longoria optimistic about crisp, new Cash
02/24/15 The HeaterPORT CHARLOTTE — With much the same graceful balance he shows at third base, Evan Longoria reported to camp Tuesday saying he didn't want manager Joe Maddon to leave the Rays but the team will be better for it.
"I just think there comes a time when it's just the right time for somebody new," Longoria said.
"I think everybody here is looking forward to a new year and just a fresh start and something that's different. I think sometimes things are needed and necessary to kind of keep you on track. That's no knock on Joe. Obviously he did so many great things for the franchise and so many great things for me as a player. But I guess all good things come to an end at some point."...

Live from Port Charlotte: Day 2 of Rays camp
02/24/15 BlogUPDATE, 5:43: Longoria reported and talked a lot about what he called the "mutually beneficial" move by manager Joe Maddon to leave the Rays and join the Cubs, as Longoria said the Rays could use a fresh approach.
Longoria also talked about some changes to his regimen as he seeks to rebound from a disappointing 2014 season.

Rays' Drew Smyly clarifies tweet on Cuban free agent Yoan Moncada
02/24/15 BlogBefore the Rays headed on the field for the second day of workouts, LHP Drew Smyly was working to clarify a Twitter post he made about the signing of Cuban free agent Yoan Moncada.
After Moncada agreed to a reported $31.5-million signing bonus with the Red Sox, Smyly tweeted:
It's not right that a Cuban 19yr old gets paid 30m and the best 19yr old in the entire USA gets prob 1/6th of that. Everyone should have to go through same process...
Cabrera to Rays: Okay with short or second but please pick one
02/23/15 The HeaterPORT CHARLOTTE — Free agent signee Asdrubal Cabrera reported to camp Monday saying he is okay with playing either second base or shortstop based on whatever the Rays decide is best for the team.
But he made it clear he would rather not shuffle between the two.
"I would like to stay in one position," Cabrera said. "I think it's hard for anyone to play short or second; it's not the same. You have to be ready for one of those two positions."...
Rays have a new No. 70 - for the day anyway
02/23/15 BlogPoking fun at how much time video coordinator Chris "Chico" Fernandez spent hanging with the former manager, the Rays made him wear Joe Maddon's No. 70 on the field Monday, with JR. in the nameplate. "Chico's a good sport,'' new Rays manaer Kevin Cash said. "It was entertaining, I think, for the guys.''
And for Maddon, who was texted several photos at Cubs camp.
Rays stake claim as top pitching staff
02/23/15 The HeaterPORT CHARLOTTE — The Rays' seemingly endless offseason of massive change formally — and finally — concluded with Monday's first workout for pitchers, catchers and new manager Kevin Cash.
And as they gathered for the first time as a group in the Charlotte Sports Park clubhouse, it was clear their answer to the skepticism about remaining contenders is a pitching staff they consider among the game's absolute best....

Cash said his first day went well, that his biggest challenge was knowing where to go. "I didn't know what field to be on,'' he said. "So I hung around with the catchers.''...
Rays catcher Rene Rivera a study in perseverance
02/22/15 The HeaterPORT CHARLOTTE — Rene Rivera has plenty of reasons to be thankful for the opportunity the Rays are giving him to be their everyday catcher after his breakout season last year in San Diego.
None bigger than the fact that five years ago, he nearly quit playing.
A career that had featured more downs than ups was cratering as Rivera found himself without a team heading into the 2010 season, playing in a semipro league in his native Puerto Rico for a few hundred bucks a game and with no better offer than from the Camden (N.J.) Riversharks in the independent Atlantic League....
Rays' Odorizzi hopes weight gain improves strength
02/22/15 The HeaterPORT CHARLOTTE — While other players (and certain sportswriters) spend their offseason trying to lose weight, Rays RHP Jake Odorizzi worked hard to go the other way.
Seeking to strengthen his core and base, Odorizzi was on an exercise-and-diet regimen to add weight and was happy to have put on 17 pounds, reporting to camp at 197.
"It was just eating a lot of food, obviously healthy food, but pretty much as much as I could shovel in," Odorizzi said. "Pretty much every meal I ate was larger than I would have had last year. … There were just a lot of meals, like six or seven a day. I'd eat something every two-three hours."...

Black History Month Aint NO Black Fad, Politicians
in Politics
February, the shortest month is packed with events and holidays of the heart. We get Valentine Day! President's Day! Madi Gras! and Lent begins! Black History Month is also celebrated this month mostly by Blacks. There will be lots of spending and lots of entertaining. Tribute is paid to inventions and accomplishments of Blacks. Whites and Blacks ask why Black History is celebrated. It's time for a national honest discussion. America's politicians need to answer the question with honest talks about the role government played in the beginning of slavery, during and after slavery was abolished. Politics setup this America. Politics must tear down this America. Politicians must lead a candid, respectful, conversation about slavery, abolistion, broken promises, laws that created a new slavery, and killings of free Blacks that went unpunished. Only government can facilitate much needed conversations to deliver an all inclusive America. Time for politicians to roll up their sleeves and put slavery behind us in America.
Politicians Created Poverty, Make'em Pass Bills to End Poverty
Politicians and CEOs are taking America back to 19th century and non-voters are to blame. Americans have to put the puzzles pieces together. Cost of living, wages and voting is political and is tied directly to our lives whether we vote or not. Poverty continues in America thanks to GOP blocking bills. If we are to lower unemployment, raise wages, stop the endless votes to repeal ACA, and end American invovled wars we must figure out politicians can pass pass bills to make these things happen. Politicians are passing bills to favor CEOs. CEOs interest is no taxation for corporations; no litigation being brought by poor people against corporations; getting rid of government regulations. CEOs want to make more profit without investing in workingclass / consumers. If America continue to not vote, ALEC, SCOTUS and Politicians gets what they want. Two classes of Americans. Wealthy who lives long lives and poor who die young untimely deaths.
Politicians Focus= 2016! Not jobs!? Not wages!? Not Healthcare!?
General elections favors people resulting in angry republicans. Midterm elections favors Republicans resulting in republicans saying the people want us to rule. Republicans rule is to favors the top 1% of wealthies of Americans. There are 80% of Americans sharing 7% of the entire wealth of the nation. Surely this is not enough for you and your children? With no jobs, no increase in wages, no healthcare, will you be able to leave to your children more than or at least as much as your parents left to you? Are you content to live with less than what is required to retire and live comfortably? Hold people in leadership roles accountable. Work to gain the best of America for self and family. Fail to require more get less. Immigrants come to America expecting more. They leave their homeland and come and gain rewards from jump street. Immigrants get jobs with good pay and Americans remain jobless. Immigrants claim more for themselves and their families. Politicians and CEOs reap monetary rewards, and Americans sulk and complain and settlle for whatever crumbs thrown from the tables of politicians. Demand more gain more. Politicians focus is on 2016 elections. Not on Americans jobs, not wages, not healthcare!
Politicians, Pay Tribute to Black History Month, Pass Jobs Bills
Where your treasure is, so is your heart. This Black History Month, I'm calling on Politicians, Business owners, CEOs, Managers and Entrepreneurs to Pay Tribute to America's Black History Month with a heart for America. Black unemployment is in double digits. The national is at 5.7%. Bring down Black unemployment and bring down the nation's unemployment. Why are Blacks denied the experience of financial stability? When was the last time you had no income, no savings, no job, no self-esteem? Many people have never and will never want. Where we are born in America dictates all too often what things will and will not happen in our lives. Blacks contributes with inventions, accomplishments and being good citizens. Yet when it comes to prosperity, Blacks are last hired, first fired and everything in between, resulting in too high uenmployment and fewer comfortable retirees. Love is an action word. Politicians who love America? Help America! Assure Black and White Americans are hired. Pass jobs bills.
U.S. Term Limits - Time for Citizen Legislators, Not Career Politicians
in Politics
It is Time for U.S. Term LImits - Citizen Legislators NOT Career Politicians!
Guest: Nick Tomboulides, Executive Director of U.S. Term Limits since 2013, overseeing its national grassroots activism efforts in support of a constitutional amendment to term limit the U.S. Congress. Nick also serves as Editor of the Term Limits National Blog at TermLimits.Org.
U.S. Term Limits has been fighting for term limits at all levels of government since 1992. U.S. Term Limits played a key role in enacting term limits by ballot initiative on 15 state legislatures and 23 congressional delegations, the latter being thrown out by a 1995 Supreme Court decision. Today, USTL's main focus is on enacting a constitutional amendment to term limit the entire U.S. Congress to no more than three House terms and two Senate terms.
Get Involved Today. https://termlimits.org/
Sign Petition https://termlimits.org/ustl-petition/
Thomas Jefferson wanted Term Limits
"General Washington set the example of voluntary retirement after eight years. I shall follow it, and a few more precedents will oppose the obstacle of habit to anyone after a while who shall endeavor to extend his term. Perhaps it may beget a disposition to establish it by an amendment of the Constitution." --Thomas Jefferson to J. Taylor, 1805.
"I apprehend that the total abandonment of the principle of rotation in the offices of President and Senator will end in abuse." --Thomas Jefferson to E. Rutledge, 1788.
"If the principle of rotation be a sound one, as I conscientiously believe it to be with respect to this office, no pretext should ever be permitted to dispense with it, because there never will be a time when real difficulties will not exist and furnish a plausible pretext for dispensation." --Thomas Jefferson to H. Guest, 1809.
ShutDown Politicians Whose Focus is Their 2016 Jobs & not on 2015 Jobs
Midterm 2014 election favors republicans. Republicans interperts 2014 election as the people's wish to be jobless, without healthcare, and underemployed. Afterall, republicans are the ones who wants jobs outsourced, while Americans remain jobless. American is on the right track today. Jobs are being created purposely by at least 300 CEOs who promised PBO they would hire during 2014. Republicans does not agree Americans need Jobs, Wage increases, Affordable Health Care, 21st century infrastructure, Promises kept to veterans, Immigration reform, Equal citizenships rights for LGBT, Voting rights for all Americans, 21st century guns laws and Judicial, Social, and Economic equality. These things will bring prosperity opportunity to all Americans and profit margin levels for the wealthiest like never seen before. All these things are possible but only if working class join together and tell politicians to focus on jobs for Americans now, and not 2016 jobs for themselves. The economic system is broken
Politicians Lust for Money Builds Poverty, End Poverty, Pass Jobs Bills Pt2
Where your treasure is, so is your heart. Black History Month is a call for change in America for Black Americans and especially for workingclass Americans. We are being held hostage by politicians and ceos and the only way to break free is for workingclass Americans of all colors to demand jobs, healthcare, and raises in wages, and end to open ended wars of other lands. We have to look at the facts of where we are and how we arrived where we are. We then have to be proactive, decided what it is we want, how we get what we want, and who needs to do what to gain what we want. Politicians are accountable to all America. You can't tell it by the actions politicians take to improve profits and bonus' of CEOS while suffering of average citizens grows daily. We the people can and ang must can make judicial, economic, and societal changes within our borders.

Are Politicians Pimping Pastors For Votes?

A nice discussion on those in Washington who are supposed to be representing us, but clearly serve their own interests.
Government is Not Corrupt! Politicians are Corrupt & For This Blame Voters
in Politics
Once upon a time the American dream was for whites only. Then after slavery was abolished and laws begin to be put in place where jobs for Negroes became reality, the American dream became all American. Well it appears that the American dream wasn't meant for all Americans, and by hook and crook, people in government with help of people operating corporations and ma an pa businesses, the American dream is too far from reality for far too many people. Corrupt politicians and corrupt CEOs joined forced in 1973 and created the American Legislative Exchange Council. This body of business owners and politicians wrote and passed laws that leaves groups of people out of luck when it comes to laws. This same group, ALEC are chipping away at laws for which battles have been fought and people have died. citizens have been brainwashed through media to believe the major troubles with America today is because of the president. The people blaming government are latching on to rhetoric and being repetitious without knowing facts, and frankly seemingly, without caring about facts.
The biggest problems facing Americans today are man made. The biggest reason these problems continue to exist is Americans will not register and vote. Every problem within our borders can be resolved with voters. Problems exist not because of government, but because of corrupt politicians. Austerity is a GOP practice. GOP Governors fire federal employees and tighten budgets causing layoffs across states. Congress blocks bills that are the difference between life and death: Veterans bills, medicaid expansion, jobs act bills, infrastructure, unemployment extension, universal background checks. GOP actually signed a contract with Grover Norquist pledging never to raise taxes on business. This corruption harms people and to end the corruption is to fire the GOP, November 2014. Take away CEO control of our lives and our money.

Your mantel is the heart of your living room, and it can magnificently bring together your decorating theme for this area. How you decorate your mantel shall reveal not only your personal style but also how you feel about the upcoming holidays. Make it special so that everyone can feel the spirit of Christmas in your home.
Creating a lovely mantel display may seem challenging, but by applying tried and tested design techniques, this can be achieved effortlessly. You can start with a motif, or you can use your existing home décor as a point of reference.
As you visualize your would-be mantel display, Tree Classics presents Christmas decorating tips that will help you turn your mantel into a gorgeous spectacle this season.
Add a Touch of Sheen
If you want your mantle to sparkle beautifully, strew it with shiny blue and silver ornaments. Then, pair them up with mercury glass candleholders, or you may opt for clear vases to achieve a subtle sheen. This wintry display anchors to an elegant holiday wreath and extends to a lush garland, which is adorned with clusters of shiny baubles and white Christmas stockings. Stringing clear lights on the wreath and garland shall keep your mantel display glowing all night.
Bring in Some Storybook Charm
For a cottage-inspired mantel, a classic holiday wreath and garland embellished with pine cones and berries will make a perfect focal point. Since rustic elements have a homey feel to it, consider decorative items in warm, neutral shades. Place a grouping of two or three wicker trees on the left of your mantel and three wooden candleholders on the right. Finish off with a tray of pine cones. Then again, you can always try something else. Check out the frosted miniature trees and personalized stockings on this mantel.
Gather Inspiration from Nature
This holiday season, bring the beauty and freshness of nature right into your home with a mantel display that mirrors the mountain forest. To achieve this look, the distinct features of Mother Earth must be visible on your focal point. Take the mirror in this photo for example. Start decorating from the edges of the mantel to its center. Balance large accessories, like these potted trees, on the right side and left side of your mantel. Your small ornaments, family photos, and keepsakes can go in between them.
If you want to have a colorful display that does not veer from this concept, simply add berries and other ornamental fruits into your arrangement.
Work with Christmas Colors
You can never go wrong with the festive colors of Christmas. Combining red and green ornaments on your mantel, especially if your focal point is a Christmas tree painting, is as easy as roasting marshmallows. Make sure, though, that your large accessories are balanced by arranging them in symmetry. If you're going to put a vase of berry sprays on the right side of the mantel, another one should go on the left. Incorporating silver or white ornaments in this sort of display will guarantee a wonderful contrast that's pleasing to one's eyes.
By choosing one of these design ideas, you'll be able to make an impressive mantel display this holiday season.

Get alerts when there is a new article that might interest you.
From the Weekly Standard's Scrapbook:
Count us underwhelmed by the logic of the ballyhooed Joe Biden/Carl Levin/Chuck Hagel resolution attacking Bush's Iraq policy. It all sounds eerily familiar: "accelerate training of Iraqi troops"; keep a small U.S. footprint; the problem isn't military, instead "Iraqis must reach a political settlement." Yes, it's almost as if Biden had plagiarized the mantra we've been hearing for the last two years from the departing commanders, Generals Casey and Abizaid. The only thing missing is a call for U.S. forces to stand down as the Iraqi forces stand up. If you can figure out why a senator would embrace a strategy that (a) he has been consistently condemning and (b) has already failed, then you, too, may be qualified to chair the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.
