This project was one of the most fun and creative projects for us. The original fireplace was red brick. Again, we wanted a more colonial coastal look. So I built what you see around the existing fireplace and also added wainscoting to the walls. Now what should we place above the fireplace? We did not want a picture or large tv so we decided to create something from our trips and adventures. We call it our Mantle Sculpture. The wood is from an old barn where I salvaged some beams and the base of the sailboat is driftwood from Cape Cod. My wife made the Sail for the boat and I placed a low voltage light behind the sailboat for lighting.
