    ⭐Would you attempt to do this to save thousands of dollars? Check out the main fireplace build here: ua-cam.com/video/LM3se_U8FCQ/v-deo.html

      I would, but never near the holidays 😉
      My only question/concern is when nailing near the electro outlets, how did you know which direction your wiring was going so as not to pierce it?

      I would and I have! Nothing more exhilarating than a diy that saves thousands! My husband and I did our fireplace and built in cabinets and shelves. He always has to tell anyone who visits that says they love our fireplace and built-ins that "my wife did that! And she also built our end tables, buffet table, hall table, Built ins in our bathroom." He helped hold things for me when I nailed gunned and glued but I did draw the plans and did the precise measuring. He's pretty proud that we did literally save thousands. He did draw the line at our custom built closet however but he was willing to pay to not have the mess in our home for 3 months... and pay he did! I seriously could have saved thousands in our master closet but oh well...he said 55 years old he was getting to old to be up and down on his knees all the time.
      Good job NataLee! I love it!

      I would absolutely try to do this myself. In fact, I hope to do just that in the Spring. We have an early 90s fireplace and bookshelves (stone work, heavy, black shelves) and my goal is to get rid of the stone facade and redo the fireplace AND shelves... You're such an inspiration. Thank you!!

Although I know there is a deeper meaning than the tools. Thanks, The whole thing looks extremely hard, but fantastic.

And how you created an extension of the mantle by using the same color on the shelves...and the extra supports for the floating shelves...AND the regular light fixtures with a remote switch....AND how it all looks so seamless with the fireplace, as though it was all done at the same time! It's those "little things" that create upscale designs! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it! Thank you for constantly encouraging and challenging us with your creative works! Congratulations! Enjoy your Christmas decor with your new built-ins!!!

But, its coming along nicely. My daughter and I are sharing it for now. She's a 15 year old crafter, sewer, baker, knitter...etc. Such an ole'soul my grandmother used to say. She has a Cricut and runs a little business doing all her own crafts. She's going to grow up to be like you! ❤

Well she moved 2 hours away from me, its been about 3 years but oh I miss her so much. Now we only talk on the phone and it gets to be less and less. But my hubby and myself are going to be moving also as in the spring were gonna buy a new house. Were in a rental now and its a very old house and its extremly small. But when we move Im going to try alot of these DIYs you have shared with me. Thank you so much! I love watching everything you make.

Plumbing, electrical, Sheetrock finishing etc. we did have professional people to oversee and inspect. Now that I’m almost 70 I stills use those skills but on much simpler, crafty scale.

    I love this. It's so beautiful. I really want to add this to my bedroom. I have a similar build in my family room. It's my fave room of my home, but my brother (69 yrs old) lost his leg above the knee in June. He had spent three months in the hospital being treated for what they initially thought was Covid. They injured his leg, day one, and it got gangrene. So, he went in with pneumonia and came out without his leg. I couldn't bear for him to go to a nursing home, and I brought him to live with me. The only room on the main floor that would work for him was my family room. So, I would like to recreate something smaller, but just as beautiful in my bedroom. I'm inspired and I could do this! Thank you.
