FIREPLACE

It's nice to sit by the fire on a cold & rainy day (which is almost every other day in Vancouver, BC!) with a glass of wine and a good book.

The house we purchased two years did not have a fireplace in the living room. There is a gas fireplace in the family room but it is in such an odd spot that you can't really enjoy it. We couldn't make up our minds regarding the type of fireplace; gas, electric or the ones that use those little can of fuel. My husband has taped out different sizes on the livingroom wall and floor for the last six months. The gas man came and told we couldn't put a gas fireplace in the area that we wanted. That left us with electric or the fuel type. The fuel type was expensive and did not have the size we wanted. There are a few sizes in the electric and they had the style we wanted. Below is the one Hubby purchased yesterday (the rocks aren't white but black) but you get the picture. We just have to figure out where to hang it, plug it in and instant fireplace. Can't wait...I better buy a few bottles of wine!!!
