We’re Golden

We’re Golden

Hap, hap, happy Friday Friends!! Hopefully you haven’t minded the few posts lately that have been less about design and more about life.  We are definitely getting some major projects rolling over here, so there will be plenty of design related goodness coming your way in the next few weeks!

Today I am finally revealing our metallic fireplace!  The last time you saw our hearth, it looked like this….

Everything was framed and trimmed out, but the finishing touches still needed to be added!  If you’ve been reading the blog long or seen much of my work, you know that I have a slight obsession with gold. 🙂 So, of course as we are putting things together in our own home, the glowing, rich metallic is making all sorts of appearances.  I decided the fireplace surround would be a great place to bring in some bling!  I love the shimmer and glow that a gorgeous gold hue brings to a space!

So, here’s what the surround looks like now…..

The hammered metal effect comes from a paint you’ve heard me talk about before. Benjamin Moore’s Molten Metallic line (which also comes in multiple others metal finishes) creates an incredibly authentic looking metal finish! You can get BM’s Molten Metallic paint at your local Spectrum Paint!

Next up is getting some ethanol and decorative rocks so we can light a fire during these cold winter nights! Yay! Def an instagram pic of that coming!

‘Til Monday!!!
