Here is another renovated project. This fireplace is in a home that was built in the early 80s. The original fireplace was floor to ceiling red brick. I'm sure you're familiar with this type of design. Most people consider it an eye sore.
What can you do with an outdated fireplace? Rip it out, patch the walls with drywall, redesign the surround, the mantel and the hearth? Sure, but that's a lot of work, a lot of mess, and can get expensive.
We plastered with Marmorino right over the brick on this fireplace. No more grout lines. Smooth stone-like feel and texture.
What do you think?
Thank you Michelle @ Whirlygig Designs for making this project possible and making the rest of the room look so fantastic.

Lucinda,
That fireplace turned out absolutely gorgeous!!! I have the same ugly red brick in my house...in 2 rooms no less. I glazed 1 - but really want to do something like this. Maybe you could email me your "recipe" for this and the application process. That would be awesome!!
Aces again, Lucinda! Watch out ugly brick, you're not safe with Shakti Space Designs on the case.
Thanks Michelle and Tara! You two make a good fan base.
Wow! Great makeover project - it turned out really nice!
Amazing, and the few simple changes really makes a difference. Good job!
