For the longest time I knew this empty odd-shaped wall in our living space needed a fireplace mantel & surround. It just made so much sense and was honestly the only thing missing to create a cozy atmosphere in here. I cannot take all the credit though, my husband pretty much built the perfect mantel on his own going off of my sketch (find my sketch in my ‘fireplace’ highlight) & it turned out better than I had anticipated! I got the fun part of painting, waxing and styling it 😅
