Recently, I shared the Before/After of our family room in a post on DIY gas fireplace.
Designing this from cedar planks was so much fun!
It has so much natural texture that I wanted a very simplified look that was warm and contemporary while still looking vintage and classic.
Not a contradiction at all.
The simple touch of a floral added the warmth.
Cherry blossoms lend a touch of modern with its clean and simple blossoms.
I needed some height and weight and these iron Pottery Barn candle holders that I've had for literally over 10 years gave just the right lines.
I think there are blue Ball jars in every room in the house, so on the fireplace they add just a pop of color and the glass adds a clean impact to all of the texture.
The medallion is from an old university building and sets off the fireplace perfectly.
It's all very simple and gives us a warm and comfortable place to relax!
From R7 to you --
Be a blessing.
