Fireplace makeover
Coming across a fireplace in your new home is exciting, and full of possibilities. Often the fireplace surround itself will be out of date but don’t worry, there are ways you can create a more upscale living room on a budget.
Without it costing a fortune, you can surround the hearth with laminate tile, put up some standard molding along the top and sides, and paint it a fresh color. The result: a modern and chic focal point for the heart of your home.
