Oh my gosh. Lots and lots of exciting things have been happening. We have been so busy… from making a flying trip to Tennessee to grab two fireplace mantels for our new house to starting the basement. (More about the fireplace mantels soon) If you missed the floor plan, I shared it several months […]
One of my favorite things to decorate is our fireplace mantel. Did you know that our new house will have FOUR fireplaces?

Product was exchanged for this blog post. All opinions, however, are my own. As you know, we are full underway with the projects in the cottage. We always knew we wanted an electric fireplace here because it will be Deb’s workshop in the future once the house is built. And and electric fireplace insert would […]
I could hardly wait to share my May fireplace mantel idea with you. If you are new here, I share a fireplace mantel idea every month. I didn’t have a mantel for so long and have loved coming up with new ideas. If you want to see some of my past styles, search FIREPLACE MANTEL […]
