The refurbishment of my house is yet another phase. Yesterday, namely the fireplace installed. At the spot where previously a large blackened hole in the wall Sat crisp now a warm hearth fire.
In my vision of the perfect home just hear a fireplace. The winter is coming and the temperature drops. What is sweeter than the evening after work good for the fire to crawl over a glass of whiskey?
It is also no problem to shoot great pictures by the way:
But before I could start enjoying it, had a lot done to the fireplace to get rigged. Although there is a chimney in the house, could not be said with certainty or that still functioned. The sweep brought the redeeming happy. Then there was considerably cut and plastered, and finally the fireplace itself was still posted.
There remains still a little plaster it all together to connect, is expected that one of these weeks. With this surgery is really the living room ready for now. There remains plenty to do in the rest of the house, but this is still a great milestone!
In chronological order ...
The solution which I have chosen is a dense structure, but you can still have real wood fires. The big advantage is that you have a lot more efficiency out of the firing and no nasty splash out on the parquet. You can also turn a knob to get more oxygen from the room to draw, so you can create a real inferno.
I noticed that the paneling throughout the house which I had removed firewood ideal forms. So I have enough to temporarily deprived!
