Painting the Fireplace

 I wanted to get a few painting projects (like the front door) done before the holidays and this one had been on list for awhile.

The brick on the fireplace was a bumpy, greyish white and I never liked it.  I wanted to paint it black and even did this mock up on ChatGPT.

 I knew it would be an improvement.

We already had the paint so I just needed to prep and get going on the project. There was no going back at this point!

It wasn't the easiest surface to paint because of the texture og the bricks. It needed 3 coats but I completed the job in an afternoon.  Again, what took me so long to do this!?

It's not perfect but it's such an improvement to me and I love it against the wooden mantel and our floors.

Here's how it looked when I put the room back together.

Since that was over a month ago I snapped a shot of what it looks like decorated for Christmas right now.
