Jaclyn was haunted by this big blank wall. Situated between a sliding glass door and a large window, it desperately needed an OOMPH-factor. The lone TV and electric fireplace were doing a very half-hearted job of delivering any oomph. They had like, 2% oomph.
How about a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace? Oomphy enough?
Yes indeed it was! Here’s the best part. This fireplace is simply panels of stone veneer placed over a wooden frame that her husband built. The firebox is an electric insert. The whole thing took two days! Doesn’t it look amazing? See more from Jaclyn at Love and Bellinis.
Sally also gave her fireplace a one-way ticket to Oomphville by ditching the beige drywall ‘accents’ and tile surround, and replacing them with beautiful custom woodworking and a stunning herringbone tile design.
I know! It doesn’t look like it could possibly be the same fireplace and room, but it is! See the proof for yourself at Love of Homes.

February 6, 2018 at 1:31 PMGorgeous! What a transformation. One small suggestion for your readers looking to turn things up another notch is to consider one of the incredibly realistic ultrasonic humidifier electric fireplaces. The Opti-Myst line of electric fireplaces by Dimplex are incredibly realistic. Even more realistic than most gas logs and you don’t have to worry about fumes or having a gas line! Winner, winner, chicken dinner.
