Hi, the fireplace surround is "leatherette" black granite.

Is the Mantle made of the same material? If so, how is it being supported? Thank you very much for answering.

Brick fireplace - what would you do?

I would paint the ugly red wood an antique white and the bricks a lovely soft grey, then get some cheap small black tiles in a sale and tile over the red hearth tiles or maybe leave them, see how they look. Rustoleum chalk paint is just fantastic, just straight over the top, no priming, but to save paint I would seal the bricks with diluted PVA painted on and allow this to dryRustoleum chalk paint first so they don't suck the paint up.

I had a fireplace like this in my old flat with the same alcoves - we painted the fireplace white (can't remember which paint now), covered the mantelpiece in plants that hung and trailed and shelved out the alcoves for books and artwork with the tv at the bottom on the left hand side. I loved it! You can get a really cool mid-century feel with those fireplaces. Unfortunately being in a city we weren't allowed to light the fire so we had pillar candles in the actual fire place which made it feel cosy

Thanks Gary - looks great and it's made me rethink how viable my budget really is...As we also need to decorate, do some replastering, new skirting boards, maybe do some re-wiring, get a new carpet and some Roman blinds made for the bay window. Some great money saving tips, thanks Steve. I think I'm going to get a fireplace guy to come and look at how viable the fireplace is in terms of having a wood burner and how much it would cost to change it and then have a think. I'm also loving the idea of getting a cheap wooden fire surround -maybe a secondhand one off eBay and painting it up in a contesting colour - like the attached image but not the same colours - probably a vibrant orange.. I also love 1940's and 1950's tiled fireplaces as would have probably been there originally - but the repro versions or decent old ones are so privy..

What window treatments for arch windows with no clearance at the top?

Blinds that sit within the frame, below the top arch, would be an option - either Roman blinds or wooden slatted blinds. Or if budget allows then Shutters would look fab!
