It feels like it’s been forever & I’m so happy to be back! Figured I’d post something different while we’re all waiting on this bathroom to get done! Thanks for being patient with me as I keep on trucking in this house of mine. Missed you all so much! 💓
We - especially my daughters - missed you / your videos. Nicely done with the "fireplace thingy" (yes - exact technical term my younger one used 😅). Your house projects are coming along quite nicely.
AWould you mind telling me how big that Tv was. and the fireplace? I am formulating my own fireplace plan and I was thinking of a 75inch TV over a 70 inch fireplace. which should be close to the same actual width. Just trying to visualize it. Most of these builds I see do this with a 60 inch fireplac, and 65 inch tv. Yours looks bigger.
That is "Fire"! Literally. Wow, great job! I love at the end, how your accent wall from the other side of the room is in the reflection of the glass from the fireplace. Inspiring video.
I LOVE the creativity and innovation in the TOTAL creation of your entertainment center with an amazing fireplace...WOW! Thank you for sharing HOW 2 step by step. LUV U...U ROCK!
Electric fire places are awesome. Great for ambiance in the summer time without heat. Or with 240V can heat up nicely! We had the option to do whatever we wanted and still went electric. Love it.
Turned out incredibly cool! Such an inspiration. I have the same project on the to do list, except i have windows either side to center fireplace. I also let Hubby get new ginormous tv, which now overhangs the window trim a bit🤔 gonna have to get creative to design a shape to accommodate the elephant in the room. Possibly a whole wall of built ins? Your framing method will definitely come in handy working with old unlevel walls and floors. Thanks for your excellent content 😻
This looks absolutely beautiful, I think the TV is a perfect size . If it was narrower than the fireplace may have looked odd. The electric has the advantage of having a fire without the heat too. If someone wants a real big screen you could put a crown on top. Then stand the crown off about 3 inches and put a projector screen hidden behind the crown, that rolls down in front of a smaller tv for a real theater experience and a small TV for everyday use. I have a 120 screen in my living room trust me it's amazing for movies.
@@diyhuntress You're most welcome😁 I've been trying to get my mama to agree to let me do something like this for her new home. This is exactly what I needed to give her a visual!!
Looks absolutely great, Sam. The TV is just the right size for that spot. Just curious though, does the fireplace actually heat or is it only aesthetic? Keep up the great work. Bill
If it makes you feel any better, nothing in a new house is square, straight, or level either 🤣 I love your new fireplace wall 😍😍 and your new floors! 🙌
But older homes are even worse. Our original house was built in 1978 -- we moved in a couple of years later and mostly things were pretty level and square. We just moved into a house built in 1951 (we've downsized) and it's amazing how different it is from our old house. We had a skilled guy put together the shelves we had in our original house, which looked fine there, and he made them level which means they look off kilter in this house! I'm trying to figure out how to handle that because I'm obsessive enough to notice it every time I look at them!
So so so happy to see you, for past couple of days I was thinking if you are ok cause there was no new video or maybe i have missed the notification, but finally so happy to see you and as always the project is awesome, also don't worry you will get use to such big screen haha
Sooooo beautiful 😍… 🤣… BTW I low key love the IMAX in the livingroom especially if you don’t have another area where you can put it! You killed that fireplace wall… you have some amazing building skills 🥰… can’t wait to see more! Thanks for sharing
I have been hemming and hawing over doing the fireplace and happened upon your video. Do you have pictures of how things went in the cubby? I haven't done the fireplace bc I had no idea where to stick all the gadgets. Thank you soo much
This was a great video I’m very happy I found it I just would like to know what was the total price of this project as well as how long did it take you to complete this project
The weathered Barnwood planks that I used are not perfect, so the spacing in between the planks is slightly off and I didn’t want you to be able to see 2x4s if there is a small gap. Painting them black blends them in.
I just found your channel and OMG you're amazing!! I love this piece. I do have some questions tho.. why did you paint the frame behind the planks? Also, the box you built inside the wall, what's in there? cables? And how do you access it? I am taking this project on myself for my home and I am completely new to this type of work! I am trying to figure out how to hide the satelite box and speaker system. Any advice will be greatly appreciated
Hi Sam, great video, but in future videos any chance you could please can you upload in 4K rather than 1080p as 4K is the new standard that other RU-vidrs use 😀
