Mantle Issues

I have re-arranged my mantle. The clock will not be moved. However, I have a couple different options. I just can't decide!
Before:
Do you like this better? Or should I switch stuff around?
Another option:
I LOVE the china-girl and of course I love my new urn. I decided to put REAL ivy in it (versus fake ivy, of course). I'm leaning towards this mantle versus the globe mantle. Any suggestions?

New Urn

Yesterday at lunch I took a wrong turn and found a really fun store in the Hillcrest area. There was children's clothing, bedding and flea market items....wierd! I found two great urns, one was $50 and the other was $9. They looked the same to me.... until I turned the $9 one around, it was missing a piece. Useless? No way, treasure! I am going to put it on my mantle where no one will know it is lacking a back. I am unsure what to do with it... I would love your comments!
Should I leave it alone? (The picture looks grainy, but actually the urn is grainy and naturally distressed = perfection!)
Missing piece. Who will EVER know? (Except you, of course.)Random foliage?VERY fake ivy topiary? (Courtesy of Big Lots)
Very REAL ivy?
Oversized metal Star?
Pear?
I would love to have your feedback - leave a comment!
