Gorgeous, he did a super job!
ReplyDeleteAnd, I love the washtub wood bin. Country, and creative!
Tammy, thank you, I love it too!
DeleteWhen we lived in the country, our wood stove and hearth were almost identical looking to yours. Oklahoma winters can be cold and we were thankful for that wood stove to heat our home.
ReplyDeleteThe washtub is perfect for holding your wood.
Your husband is quite a Mason, the brick work looks professional.
Thank you Rhonda! There's nothing like the heat for warming your bones like the heat from a wood stove!
DeleteI love the hearth. Your husband did a very nice job on the brick laying. Is your stove big enough that you can put a pot on? We used to have a big pot belly stove when I was growing up and mom kept a big tea kettle on there so we could have hot cocoa when we wanted it in the winter...not to mention keeping moisture in the air. Love it. Paula
ReplyDeletePaula, yes, in fact it could probably hold a couple of pots. That's one of the things we were looking for when we purchased it.
Deletewait, i thought you only got the house last year? how can the hearth take 5yrs? did i miss something?
ReplyDeletelooks great! love wood heaters/stoves, there's just something so homely & cosy about them, warm too!

Selina, We got the house in 2007 and have been slowly working on it 'paying as we go' ever since!!!
