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 options, Thanksgiving Mantels, and even Back to School Mantel Decor.
The cool thing about electric fireplaces is that you can add a focal point, heater, design element and even a TV stand all with one piece. We want to help you find the well fitted one for your home, and after you look at our favorites, we will share some design option for decorating or styling a mantel. Oh and great if you want a more homey look in a rental or room that doesn’t have a fireplace without such a big investment.

Styling and Decorating
These design options are with actual fireplaces, but the designs and options still work with an electric fireplace. ANd will get the design options going!
This is a cool option 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 striking piece of art is a great way to bring together a mantel.
Another example of a TV, the other great option 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!
