I love your ideas to change the tile and add more trim to the mantel, which I would love to do in the future. For now I was really just wanting a quick fix! I would love to get a whole new mantel someday but I really gotta pace myself. : )
I decided to paint the mantel and leave the screen alone for now. It is the quick fix I was dreaming it would be, so bright and cheery!
(I chose to paint the mantel instead of doing the laundry while the babies were sleeping... I know I am so bad but this is so much prettier!)

wow! What a difference a coat of white paint makes! Looks great. I love quick fixes!
Love the white mantel, I would grab some tile paint in the same colour and paint those also.....very fresh. a couple of little black jars on the mantel to keep the vent from popping out visually.
I will be quiet now as it really is gorgeous without all the things I just said.
I am having a give away if you want to pop over.
THIS LOOKS SO GOOD!!! You were quick with getting that painted :)
WOW! Aren't you quick! I knew whatever you decided would look fantastic! Great job!
That looks wonderful!
It's so beautiful, you did great girl!!!
XOXO

umm, can you please come to my house and help me get some stuff done? that was some amazing turnaround time! and it looks just fabulous! it's amazing what a little paint can do....
That was quick! I do that sort of thing while the baby is napping too, I figure it is MY free time :)
Dang girl, you are fast! It looks really great!

Love the white! So pretty and of course I have always fancied your mirror. =)
I am so just like you. If I have a project in mind I have to get it done t-h-a-t day or else I'm all jittery about it. I think it turned out great. It flows a lot better being white than it did black. And p.s. I'm soooo jealous your little girl still naps. Ainsley just stopped and it's killing me!!
I really love that mirror and the white makes such a huge difference! Love it. XX
FAB! completely fabness
Ah, you did it! Looks soooo good, hun!
haha but a new mantel piece is way more satisfying than clean laundry!!
I can't believe how different the area looks with the paint. It's so you! Now that is using nap time to the fullest.
good choice and i love how quickly you finish your projects. i wish i could be more like that!
Looks great! Gotta focus on one project at a time right?
Definitely love the white!
Great decision!! You can never go wrong with white !
certainly did the trick! hey, you should also look around you for places that sell vintage fire place mantles. i have a place near me that is to die for, complete fireplace facades, taken from old homes, doors, clawfoot tubs...a girl could go completely gaga! ;)
The white looks perfect! Isn't it amazing what a little paint can do!
Oh, I missed the original post, but I LOVE what you've done with it!! I'm a sucker for all things white, it really turned out fantastic! You're such a go-getter!
i love it! i am so glad you left the screen black :)
Looks great! We just painted our mantel too, and it makes such a difference!
wow!I love it!xx

I didn't get to weigh in earlier, but you did what I would've suggested! And I, too, have spent many a naptime decorating when I should have been doing dishes!
looks great -- exactly what it needed!
