I just wanted to share my new to me fireplace . I had a brick fake fireplace in my other home before the flood but it was destroyed so Iam so excited to have another one and the best part it was free ! So here is the before makeover picture I have already painted and made it over but Iam just to tired to get another picture tonight I will post it tommarrow , Oh and yes I did paint it in my favorite color black . Remember when looking at the 1st picture it does look kinda ruff but it was built about 22 years ago .
