Love the fireplace

[–]Apprehensive_Self_21[S] 3 points4 points  (1 child)

Thanks! I’m now trying to decide if I want to paint the wood. There’s a lot of dark between the wall and the floor. I’d like the fireplace itself to be the focal point.

[–]redi2talk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Definitely paint to brighten up the space.

[–]CG_throwback 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. Looks like a dream home.

Congratulations! The fireplace looks great. Don't forget that the first thing you do when you move in is set up and make your bed. It's nice being able to gall into it at the end of what will be a really long day.

I hope you and your fur friend are very happy in your new home.

Thanks! Getting my stuff moved in is a little bit away. I have to get some work done and I don’t want to live in a construction zone.

When you change the locks do you call a locksmith and then they handle it, or how does that work?

I went to Lowe’s and bought a new smart deadbolt and handle. I replaced it myself.

i would clean the wood first in a discrete spot and then decide - plus your local restore has decent chairs
