    The fireplace is just gorgeous and what a thrill to have all that storage too. I love it. Now your pictures are so clever. I loved the light too. Hugs, Marty

    Absolutely love your new fireplace, especially those cabinets! I have been wanting to do something different to our fireplace but hubby likes it the way it is. He usually doesn't care what I do with the house but not sure he will budge on this one!

    Looks great. I really love the built in look. Those chairs are awesome...did you recover them? I may have read it and not realized it, I was so busy looking at the awesome pictures.

    Amy - What a great transformation! And that piece of salvaged architecture on the mantel is just gorgeous! Love it with the sailboat. Makes me want to take down my mirror and look for something interesting like that....

    Great job!!
