**We Do Rush Orders** This is our answer for changing/remodeling the open corner fireplace that was so prominent in the 80's & 90's. Why take new framing all the way to the ceiling? Why not just cover it up? It's so easy, and so stylish. With a custom fit corner panel to seal it over and a new "Montana Beam Mantel" it could look just like these photos! Knotty Alder Panel & Mantel: Distressed, stained & glazed, custom sized to fit, hand hammered straps. Grown in the Northwestern regions of North America, Knotty Alder is a very unique wood with large and small, open and closed knots. Its swirled grain and sometimes even small splits or cracks give it a very distinct appearance. We stand behind our Mantels making certain that they are built safe and constructed well. We cannot guarantee knots or grain placement because letting its properties occur at random...well that’s just part of its natural beauty! Mantel beam is 8" tall x 10" deep. The price shown at $889.00 is for a 40" wide mantel and panel. Please get in touch with us to create a private listing specifically designed and priced for your requirements. Satisfaction is guaranteed. John

I love being able to make these posts. Tell me, how many of you out there actually feel accomplished once you've made a recipe, craft or idea you pinned on Pinterest? :) Ha ha. Well this project came from compiling a couple ideas and printables I pinned on Pinterest in my "For The Home" pinboard. Now that Stephen is home in the evenings and we are finally having dinner on a regular basis as a family, I wanted to get more organized with my weekly menu and what's for dinner. Usually I would just wing it with the kids, and honestly some nights it would be cereal or breakfast items for dinner. But I'd like us to have more well balanced dinners and I think planning ahead helps. So I put my Graphic Design degree to good use and recreated my own weekly menu for my kitchen. I found the royalty free kitchen tool silhouettes on Getty Images. And I got my cute free fonts from Fonts For Peas. I loved the "Be Grateful" and "Just roll with it" quotes I saw on some other printables so I added those to my menu design. Another tip I got from an idea I pinned was to print the menu out and then frame it behind glass. Then you could write on the glass with a dry erase or wet erase marker. So clever! Wipe away each week to start new! And it helps that I work for a company where I could print my menu and have it framed. I love how it turned out! So if you would like to use my printable I've loaded the high res jpeg onto my Photobucket album "Free Weekly Menu Printable". Feel free to grab and save it, resize it and print it. I made mine approx 7"x20" to fit my long skinny wall next to my pantry door.
