New Fireplace Tiles

Date February 1, 2010

Eric and I have been going back-and-forth for 4 years about the tiles around the fireplace.  Eric is very attached to the tiles that are there, although we can’t keep them because a few are gone, some are missing large chunks, a few have big cracks, and then there are the ax chip marks on the floor tiles.  Eric’s attachment to these crumbling tiles is the reason we have lived with them for so long.  But, we’ve finally agreed on a solution and I will have pictures to post in two weeks.

We are having terazzo-style cement slabs made to replace all the times.  The cement will be white and the recycled glass pieces will be four colors: 30% royal blue, 30% aquamarine, 30% amber, and a small amount of cranberry as the accent color.

I’m soooo excited to have a good looking fireplace!  Oh, and it’s going to be done by e flat concrete in Corvallis.
