WOW! It is beautiful! I would get 3 glass vases and fill the bottom third with cranberries and add a little bit of water. Then put a cream-colored floating candle on top of of the cranberries. Space the 3 vases evenly on the mantle. The red in the cranberries would look gorgeous. It won't last too long but it is perfect for this time of year. You could also find some sort of red dried seed or something at Roberts and use that instead of cranberries and then set a pillar candle inside of the vase.

I love the color and everything. I think a beautiful deep red would bring it out more. You guys did awesome. It just feels great to accomplish something like this! I asked david to tile our laundry room for my christmas present. I know it is very practical. But I spend a lot of time in there. Can't wait to see more project pics!
