Home Tour: DIY Fireplace Makeover part 1
Channel: Martha Boddie
Date: 2017-11-04

Hello Dreamers.  I hope this video was inspiring and helped you get ideas on how to transform your fireplace to make it look and perform just as you want. This is just one of the many transformations I am undertaking to transform our house into the home of our dreams.

This project was really fun and easy. The total time we spent working on this transformation was about 2 hours.  The project took 2 days as we allowed adhesive and paint to dry overnight. So, if you’re a weekend warrior like me, you should dream big and just do it.

Parts 2 and 3 of this fireplace makeover will blow your minds and I hope you stay tuned so that you get a notification when they are available. Just be sure to like, share, subscribe, and hit that bell for your notification.  This is a creative life journey and I hope that you come along for the ride!
