I’m back to share my DIY faux fireplace – how I designed it, how it was built and installed, and how I’ve styled it for the season ahead.
If you’re hunting for an easy or beginner sewing project this winter- or for your holiday decor… this cozy faux fur lumbar pillow is one to save and try!

Planning & Designing
Setup Your Workspace
I started by measuring potential fireplace and TV sizes with tape. I left some room for our drapes on either side.
Selecting Materials
After searching some local stone fabricators, we found a neutral colored quartz remnant that could be cut to the size we wanted.
Construction
Setup Your Workspace
I came up with the design, and my dad worked out how to make it a reality. Then we added a top and decorative moulding.
Installation
Setup Your Workspace
First, we removed the baseboard that was in our way, and laid the quartz hearth on the floor, centered between the windows.
Keep it minimal. A few stacks of books, a couple scented candles,.
Faux Fireplace Styling Ideas
I’ve been so happy with the end result and have lots of fun switching up the styling every so often.
