We (ok, primarily Warren .. but I helped!) put up the stone on the new fireplace this weekend. A short post to show you the final (almost) result. Our order was a few stones shy of corner pieces, so we have to get 2-3 more of those and finish the top portion. We also still have to put up more porcelain tile on the hearth and fire box. We're pretty proud of it. Can you see the weathered elm mantle? Looks like it's always been there! I think it makes our whole cottage look cozy! What do you think?
The stone product is a manufactured stone product made by Cultured Stone - the river rock series .. you can find out more about it here:

Aside from some (ok, many) body aches and pains, and some basic tiling experience, it's something you can do yourself ... Let us know if you're inspired!
