5 Must-Haves for Dressing up your Fireplace

Every fireplace needs a screen and a tool set, but safety doesn’t need to cramp your style. Opt for a screen that adds a graphic element, like this chevron fireplace screen from Crate&Barrel. Paired with their Pewter tool set, this fireplace offers a polished and chic look in a rustic environment.

Don’t leave your firewood in a cardboard box behind the couch. Showcase those logs! Also in Crate&Barrel's wonderful collection of fireplace décor is their Antique Brass Log Holder. It’s loop-shaped design makes for an excellent statement in the room, and holds enough room to hold enough wood for many fires.

Having a cozy nearby storage spot like a basket or wooden crate will let you keep blankets, books, and games at hands-reach.
