To make this easy How To Make A Faux Fireplace On The Cheap You’ll need the following ingredients:
Blank wall and beagle looking for food, as usual.:-)
We first built the foundation using 2x4s and built a frame.Then we tiled and grouted it.
We framed out the fireplace surround using 2x4s and 1x8s.
The mantel was a piece of barn wood that we found in the garbage.
We added a mimicked shiplap to the top so a tv could be hung and the wires dropped behind.
Once we tiled the area we used clamps until the glue dried. We framed out about the mantel and created a shiplap look so later a tv could be hung and the cords could e dropped behind.
We found logs in the woods by our house and my husband cut them into 2 inch rounds and we glued them to a graphite painted background that comes out to access the electric.
