Changes ... warming changes


Our lounge fireplace is finally finished! It only took five years!

Before - below (And just for the record it is shown with the previous owner's styling/decor.) Pink wall; Stone fire surround with green grout; Not sure how to explain the mantle; The fire box was also fairly useless; Plus grotty carpet etc.

It has been a long project spanning five years even though it appears a fairly simple transition in the photos. We drove to Geelong to get the Jetmaster fire box I bought on ebay. It is fantastic. And the fire surround was on ebay too! I found the big frame in a second hand furniture shop and had a mirror fitted. I think the frame might have originally been the front of a chest of drawers.
