Fire Surround

Picked this fire surround up from Gumtree for £40. It was in quite a mess all the wood had come loose, and It was covered in dead spiders and little mites that made me itchy for days lol!!!

I could see the potential though :)

 

 

 

 

I had to chip away some of the old fireplace to make the surround fit..

 

 

 

I had to add sides and a top onto the main fire surround ..

 

 

 

Mouldings made out of plaster of paris...I buy a resin or wood mould then make a copy using liquid latex and make a plaster mother mould of that....

 

 

 

So here it is all finished...
