@Vanessa The fireplace has a lot of meaning. The shiplap was wood that was harvested from pine trees that was on my in-law’s lot when they bought it about 25 years ago. The mantle came from the top of my grandad’s workshop (he was a carpenter.)

@jmreekes The fireplace is gorgeous!
@retrophisch Thanks. It is one of our favorite things about the house.
@retrophisch @Vanessa Here is what the raw wood looked like. We also used some on the master bath on the outside of the shower

@jmreekes Ah, a shower without a door. The dream.
