As your fireplace can be the focal point of a room, you want to give it a stunning presentation without overcrowding it. To stage a fireplace, you need to consider the following: color, decor, and texture. Follow the rule of three - this means grouping objects in sets of three. For example, you have three different sizes of candles placed on top of the fireplace for a more visually pleasing look. Create balance when you’re decorating your fireplace.
