Fireplace Progression

Ah, Kirby is at it again! He has redone the fireplace - again! This is what the fireplace looked like when we moved into our home almost 5 years ago. That design is very pretty but it just didn't go with what we were doing to the house.

So, one day I said to Kirby, maybe we could just take the fireplace mantle off and start over. It was just a thought. But the next day when I cam home - it was all gone! Just a fire box left! With no plan in sight on what to do with it, we just sort of decided to add a new mantle, paint and go on to the next project.



By Christmas of 2008, this is what we had. (Jake was a recent addition at that time, having only had him about 3 weeks when this picture was taken)

Finally, we got a plan and Kirby went about redoing the fireplace again. I think he did a great job! We love the new look!

  1. And it's good to get that wine out of the fireplace! What were you thinking? Never mind, now that I look at it again, it was within crawling distance.
