One of my favorite things about this time of year is sitting by the fire. When we remodeled our family room 3 years ago, the top item on our wish list for the space was a wood burning stone fireplace. I wouldn't change a thing about it. We use it almost daily from October through March. It is one of the first things you see when you enter our home. We read here. Play games here. Fold laundry here...
It has been so much fun to decorate each season. Here it is last Christmas.

And last summer.
We did not completely DIY the fireplace. We had a fireplace company install the firebox and chimney. We had a family friend do the masonry. He was meticulous and did a fantastic job.
Here it is before stone:
And as the stone went on:
Here's all the details and sources:
~The cultured stone and trim stones were purchased locally, but are widely available.~
Stone: Owens Corning Cultured Stone. Style: Country Ledgestone
Color: Chardonnay
Trim Stone around fireplace opening: Owens Corning Cultured Stone Trim Stones. Color: Taupe
Firebox: link to Lenox firebox here.
Model LBR-4324
The overall width of the fireplace, including the stone, is 7ft wide.
Can you please tell me what is the demension of the opening (left to right) of the fireplace? Then what is the demension from the side of the trim stone to the opening (L to R) of the fireplace? Sides only!
