Today I'm cleaning up the film of dust that has settled over everything in the house from my bathroom remodel. So, I thought I'd show off my fireplace that we did when we first moved in last October. The walls in this room were all white, and the fireplace was in the corner, the walls behind it coming to a 90 degree angle. I talked hubby into making me a new wall which cut across the corner, giving me one wall over the fireplace. I then painted the rest of the room a deep red and I painted just the fireplace wall in an ivory and framed it with molding to make it stand out. I finished it off with some accessories I bought at Hobby Lobby 1/2 price, a flea market mantel clock, and a picture I already owned. Now the fireplace, rather than the TV is the focal point in the room.
