Design ideas for fireplace

19 years ago

Does anyone have open cabinetry/shelves/cabinet doors above their fireplace? I'm trying to come up with a design for a fireplace that will be in our kitchen/hearth room. It will have a small flatscreen tv above it (I know, it's no-no...) and we need a place for the receiver, but I also wanted some open shelving for decoration. Any suggestions or pictures? THANKS

I was looking for ideas on fireplace design and built-in storage for my remodel and found some good books at HD. They had three different books on just fireplace design (surprised me.) I liked the one by Better Homes and Gardens. I also got a book called "Built-Ins Idea Book by Taunton at HD. Really like that one. They were $19.95 each but a better deal than most magazines. I am sure they have them at book stores and libraries, too.

Good luck!

I have an old 70's brick fireplace painted white. What is an idea for a French Country look? There are full length windows on each side of the fireplace and the ceiling is about 8 feet tall at most. We had considered putting a flat screen TV above the mantel (not sure). I have seen a beautiful cedar mantel that was distressed in the Hill country of Texas. Please give me your responses for ideas. Thanks
