Comments (7)Did you use Stove Bright High Heat paint? I liked the can the fp guys left us for t/u's (on our fp surround and mantel cover--metallic black), that I ended up using it to re-spray our baseboard heat covers on the fp wall (satin black). It's a great product IMO, and as I also found, can be "fixed" following "goofs" and "oopsie's!" LOL I found it to be much easier for me to "control" for spot t/u's than Krylon's high temp spray paint (which ran, dripped, and over-sprayed like crazy on the baseboard covers). So, if you end up with any scuffs or scratches on your fp doors and box over time, you can easily re-touch them whenever you want! (I even used the paint in silver to spray paint a little table I picked up in sale at Pier 1 recently, followed by a couple coats of their Clear Coat for added protection, and to up the sheen just a little--looks terrific!)...See MoreNew lights on the subject

Comments (5)Thank you ilovecomputers, I love the window too. The round piece in the window is a stained glass piece that was made by a local artist. We got it at a craft festival just a few months after we purchased our home. I have a bit wreath that I wanted to hang there for Christmas but my hubby would not let me move the stained glass....See MoreFireplace face lift
Comments (8)@Kelly Renee - First, just know there are many on this site who will never paint anything wood or stone. They just won't. Not cabinets, not brick - they think it ruins the wood/stone. There are many others who have no problem whitewashing or painting brick and painting good wood cabinets. It's all about what YOU want. My daughter took her large brick fireplace and whitewashed it first. That didn't quite do it for her, so then she painted it. She is thrilled and IMO it looks so much better. If going down that road, whitewash first to see how you like it. Sometimes tones will come out that you don't want and then you can paint it out if you want to. You can't go the other way. It does seem that with the TV mounted above, that the furniture layout could use some work. Perhaps facing the sofa so that when sitting you can see the TV. I'd work on different ways to arrange the furniture, before addressing the aesthetics of the fireplace. Then come back with updated pictures....See MoreSina Sadeddin Architectural Design
