Walking into my home was once a boring experience, but the ambiance changed when I decided to build a very elegant and cozy quartz wall unit!! 😍
This is the plain wall as it was when we moved into the house
Plain wall part 2
We measured the tv space, cut the posts where the tv would be hung, drilled the posts on the wall and started to cement the quartz blocks on to the wall
We finished one side of the quartz wall and moved on to the next one. We also started to paint the posts in black. The hanging shelves were purchased at ikea.

Here are the fruits of our hard labor!
The finished product!

This is very elegant. Nice job@ I do agree with a previous poster that I would paint the wall between the stone black.
But it is really nice.

Frequently asked questions
Have a question about this project?
Where are the electrical cords for the TV and electric fireplace? Did you place them in the wall or are they running along the black wooden border....or are they somewhere else? Thanks.
What type of material did you use for the rock? I saw a link but it looked as though that may be peel and stick and yours required mortar? Just trying to verify the material, color and where you got it. It’s absolutely beautiful, love it!
I love it..what brand of fireplace do u have?
