DIY Brick Fireplace Renovation

Hi Lovelies. We have been working hard on your home renovations. It has been a long work in progress, but every weekend we get one step closer to finishing. Today, I wanted to share our DIY Brick Fireplace Renovation.

This renovation was a long process that Chase and I traded off on. I am so happy with the final product. It turned out amazing and fits perfectly with all of our renovations in the house. I can’t wait to share the final home renovations with you guys. We are down to the bathrooms and downstairs flooring for the interiors. It will be at least a year before it is all finished, but I will be sharing each project with you all here.
