Better Days You're Hallways on my mind

Two different Hearths shown here. The one just below is my latest aquisition. The other I've begun working on by enlarging the mantle top with crown molding and paint. Other paint to be added, will show you what I do later on this week. I'm planning to work on it Thursday.



And you ask me what I want this year And I try to make this kind and clear

Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days

Cuz I don't need boxes wrapped in strings

And desire and love and empty things

Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days


So take these words And sing out loud

Cuz everyone is forgiven now

Cuz tonight's the night the world begins again


And it's someplace simple where we could live

And something only you can give

And thats faith and trust and peace while we're alive

And the one poor child that saved this world

And there's 10 million more who probably could

If we all just stopped and said a prayer for them


So take these words

And sing out loud

Cuz everyone is forgiven now

Cuz tonight's the night the world begins again

I wish everyone was loved tonight

And somehow stop this endless fight

Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days


So take these words

And sing out loud

Cuz everyone is forgiven now

Cuz tonight's the night the world begins again

Cuz tonight's the night the world begins again

So, now you've been introduced to my fixation with Hearths & Mantles.

Physical warmth and kindness as impetus for design makes my heart sing. I'll be adding to this hearth shown immediately above. (Hint: Goo Goo Dolls) Can't wait to show you what I'm planning to do. Be sure to check back later this week. Planning to work on it Thursday.

I love these and vintage faux log burners and just have such affection for them. I can never resist and have collected several the last few years. My husband is wondering when enough is enough. I'm planning to sell the latest one (top picture) when it's ready. It's sitting in our hallway right now (or what we like to call shipping and recieving)
