Fireplace Mantel Makeover, Part 1

beautiful room

I first saw this room on Instagram and her whole house is completely amazing!!  We will have similar built ins but on either side of the fireplace and my board and batten is the same in my house which will be carried on the adjacent walls.  That ceiling though…swoon!  Via thesunnysideupblog.com

 

I wavered for a long time between doing a hearth (the ‘seat’ in front of the fireplace) or no hearth and ultimately decided to built a hearth because in the winter I like to sit by the fire and warm my buns.  Plus our space can handle it.  But it warn’t easy, lemmeetellya.

    It literally looks amazing. I wish I had room in our teeny little farmhouse for a mantle. Maybe someday when we build a home. Great articles – gorgeous site.

    What is the brand and color of tile that is on your fireplace? I’m considering herringbone, but really like yours. Thanks

      Thanks! I honestly don’t know because we chose it at the design center of our home builder. Sorry that’s not very helpful!
