You can do a lot of things to a fireplace... you could add a mantle, paint outdated finishes, re-tile, add a unique fireplace screen, etc. Then you can do a lot with decorations on the mantel too. Good luck!
We replaced our old marble mantel & now I would like to repurpose it. The piece measures 8" x 1 1/4" x 6'. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Here are a few suggestions:
