The discovery of the weekend

was that we have a real chimney! We finally looked behind the faux fireplace, and found a bare brick hole. But when you shine a flashlight up it, you see a long tunnel going, we can only imagine, to the top of our three-story building. How neat, we say. I think our new plan is to trash the stone fireplace cover and let our bare brick fireplace shine, perhaps with a rough-cut wood mantel. Any ideas?

Fireplace with a huge mantle sounds amazing. If you can't have actual fires, you could line the insides with mirrors and burn candles, which looks super cool.
