Fireplace Refresh 2023

1/29/2023

OK! So first BIG Project of 2023. I decided my white fireplace in the living room needed a refresh. Lately I have been painting everything black. So the fireplace got a new coat of Behr paint, color = BROADWAY, in a satin finish.

I think it turned out really well and gives the living room a whole new look. I pulled the front off the fireplace and put an electric heater in that resembles burning logs. The whole room has kind of a botany, nature inspired, "booky" vibe. Is booky a word? Let me know what you think!

Just a reminder... BEFORE

The fireplace at Christmas before the refresh.

Come in in an cozy up!

So... of course I will keep tweaking little parts and pieces, but I am pretty happy with how it turned out. I like how the black ties into the wall I refreshed in the dining area recently.

Dining room wall painted Broadway Black by Behr too!

A closer look at the mantel.

The black looks so fresh!

I really had a lot of fun refreshing the fireplace! I will share some more living room refresh pictures in my next post! I am even going to try to get some video footage. Maybe I will even try the whole YouTube thing!!! My sister and her husband are making all kinds of fun video's for their resale business "I'd Flip That!" and so I think I have to give it a try too! Check them out and then check back for the next post!!! Until then... wishing you well.
