About mantel
Mantel was created out of a simple belief: the holiday cards we receive deserve more than a temporary spot on a countertop or refrigerator.
Each year, family and friends send thoughtful notes, photographs, and well-wishes meant to be seen, shared, and remembered. Too often, they’re admired briefly, then stacked, tucked away, or discarded once the season ends.
Mantel gives those cards a place in the home again — turning both physical and digital holiday cards into a living, rotating display on your TV. It’s a modern hearth for family sentiment: calm, uncluttered, and quietly present.
We’re not replacing cards. We’re giving them a home.
