30by30: Extra Credit #4 Sit in front of my own gas fireplace COMPLETED

We completed the renovations to our fireplace. Here are the before and after pictures. We already had gas installed in the house, so we called All Pipe Systems to come in and lay additional pipe and run it down the wall. Small 6 in x 6 in hole to patch up on the backside, facing the kitchen. However, the fireplace tray and black lava rock look really sharp. We used some black heat-resistant spray paint to clean up the fire box. I think it looks great and will be fabulous in winter when we need it also for it's value as a heater. Right now it creates a wonderful calming mood in our space.
