ItzKathyP Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 For those of you who didn't see the original topic a few weeks ago, I broke my first, beautiful Lawbre fireplace and have been just obsessing on the possibility that the first was beginners' luck and I'd never be able to make it look as nice again. Thanks to all of your kind remarks and great suggestions, I've completed the New new fireplace and wonder what you think. There will be the ubiquitous mantle clock, maybe candlesticks (?) and whatever I can find that might fit on those tiny, tiny shelves along the sides. So far I've just added pictures of the homeowners, Emma and Polly, and one tiny porcelain bird. I think the style of the fireplace is so cool that I don't really want to overwhelm it with stuff.

Corwin Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Looks great how about a couple small beads, try those and see how they look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaholly Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 I like it better than the first one! I do think small items of bric-a-brac on the shelves are called for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ItzKathyP Posted November 19, 2008 Author Share Posted November 19, 2008 Thanks to everyone for all your kind comments. It can be pretty intimidating displaying a first house to all of you talented miniaturists. Lucky you're all not only talented but really nice too!!

sommerstern7 Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 Your fireplace is wonderful--I love it! I agree with you and would try to not overwhelm its detail with a bunch of nick nacks. I would add the items that you mentioned and not too much more after that. Although I bet it would look incredible decorated for the holidays with lights and garland.
