Any fireplace surround deserves added attention to detail

Any living room fireplace is usually the focal point of the room. Accompanying floral arrangements sitting in an unused fireplace center or on either side of the hearth add a warm touch. Fireplace tools, like tongs, a brush, and a poker for stirring the embers come in many designs and styles to match the rooms decorating scheme. You can get a Victorian, Edwardian, Georgian or French provincial style to suit the mood of your living room. Adorn the mantel with period antiques or accents to add color and design.
