I've been playing with paint and I made a shelf!
I borrowed the woodblocks from another fireplace,
so I'll have to make a new fire.....
but how do you do that.....
do you use branches fresh from the garden???
I'm always a little bit afraid there will be bugs in there that will eat my projects

Margriet to kill off the bugs simply place the logs in boiling water for a few moments, then dry them out in a microwave, nothing will live through that :) (its how my son sterilises the branches for his real snakes :o))
PS I am in love with your fireplace!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks Nicky!!! I will try that!
Hij is prachtig geworden!
Beter dan de tip die je al gehad hebt zou ik het niet weten hoor, dat lijkt me inderdaad voldoende, arme beestjes;-)
Je zou nog zo'n waxine lichtje op batterijen van de action, onder door je open haard kunnen steken, dan heb je ook nog een echt flikkerend "vuurtje", heb ik bij mijn open haard ook gedaan, en dan heb je geen snoertjes enzo.

ja, daar heb ik ook aan gedacht Marieke...maar pas toen de hele open haard er al in vast gelijmd zat hahaha...ik kom er nu dus niet meer bij!!! Nou ja...bij een volgende keer dat dan maar eens doen...ben nu takjes aan het koken ;-)
Very nice! That shelf is perfect!
Margriet, your fireplace looks so Perfect for your Tower! I am starting to design my Wizards Tower that will be at the Top of my Castle Tower..... and I am trying to decide on the location of the stairs and the fireplace... I like the way yours is in the corner under the stairs.... it looks so Cozy! You have made it look very inviting... I want to curl up by it with a book... :)
Looks so fantastic!!! That shelf is the cream on the fireplace-dessert... (LOL) - and stil so much space on it for lovely decorations. Is this really a mini version of the "Venus von Willendorf" I spotted there?
Have a great weekend!

The shelf is great!

Thank you ladies for you nice comments!
Daydreamer...good luck with you tower! I'm very curious how yours will look!!
Birgit..yes, it is a miniature Venus von Willendorf!!! I bought it some years ago when we were visiting a cave while being on holiday in Germany! I have a miniature Venus of Brassempouy too!
I love this, the shape and style is perfect for that room! Kate xx
Mooi hoor Margriet.Leuk gemaakt.En zit maar niet over besstjes in.Ik haar hout ook uit de natuur en er is nog geen beestje die onze hobby lekker vinden!

I used real branches and Nicky, thanks for the suggestion on how to debug the branches :). I will definitely try that. I used real materials a lot.
Margriet, your fireplace is looking hot! I love the fat lady sculpture on the shelf. I have a few life sized ones :).
