It's WISE to DIY: Thrify Ideas for the Do-It-Yourselfer

She Couldn’t Afford A Real Fireplace So She Did The Next Best Thing (It May Actually Be Better!)

Here is what she had to say about this fireplace over at whitebuffalostylingco.:

A traditional wood-burning fireplace would’ve been ideal, but was definitely out of the question and budget.  But for a small fraction of the price, we decided to do a “faux” fireplace with ventless gas logs.  In the room, it looks exactly like a real, normal fireplace, but it has no chimney and saved a ton of money.  We’re talking thousands, y’all.

So they built that up, added gorgeous hexagon and large rectangular marble tiles:

Then her hubby built and trimmed out the whole mantle LIKE A BOSS.

NOW THAT’S HOMEY!  Love the color scheme, the marble, all of it.  And it lights!
