Mantel Makeover



We are slowly updating our house, replacing or refinishing all the gold and oak. (which is everywhere) One thing at a time. We finally got around to doing our fire place mantel!

Before: 
We had already started sanding and I realized I forgot to take a before picture. You can see the dust on the tile.

Piming
After:

We really liked the way it turned out. Will did most the work.
New decorations coming soon.
