A Change of Hearth.

Our fireplace has bugged me since the day we moved into our house.  Especially now that we have the carrera marble in the kitchen.  I was haunted by the beige marble, the cheap gold details on the doors and the overall lack of character.


I ordered this mother of pearl tile a year and a half ago and FINALLY got around to managing the install.


 We simply removed the hideous doors and voila.  I am in love.
