Lego rainbow waterfall

Currently no because this one doesn't work which is why we're getting a new one. We would like to use it to heat the room though. The material seems to be marble and then in the middle it's an aluminium sheet I think.

Wondering if you actually use the electric fp to heat the room?

Would the owners be okay with your buying a larger one? It seems that replacing it is only worthwhile if you plan to live there long enough to get a lot of use from it.

What is the material behind the heater (it kind of looks like marble)?

The whole thing looks kind of drab. I would put focus on bringing a lot of color and interest to the area.

• I suggest moving the speakers away from the front because the white does not add any color or interest.

• Start by putting an area rug in front, preferably something that has rich colors. I would recommend something rustic-looking, in keeping with the look of the stone fireplace.

The type of rug depends on your budget, but if money is tight, look for pre-owned online or at a thrift store. Lowe’s and Home Depot also sell rugs (don’t forget to look in the garden section).

• In the shelf/cubbies, find some tinted mirror or glass to cover the back (something reflective) and in front of it place some handmade or rustic candle holders. They can be dark bronze, “rusted” red, or a copper (maybe with a green/blue patina). The holders do not have to match; in fact, it would be better if they didn’t. You can go to a thrift store, craft faire or . Even World Market. When the candles are lit, the whole thing should shimmer.

• As for the larger space behind the heater, it depends on whether or not it gets hot back there.

If it stays cool, you could insert interesting looking abstract painting(s) from a thrift store. Or maybe paint some thing yourself if you are artistic.

If the area gets hot, then I would suggest going to a tile store and buying a couple of sheets of the very small glass tiles in very shimmery, deep, reflective colors. It can be mounted on backer board and put it behind the heater. It will be easy to take when you move.

In the warmer season, when not using the fireplace, you could put some potted plants and succulents next to it.

Find some ceramic pots as well. Succulents can handle the warmth and there are amazing varieties out there that grow very fast from tiny plants.

Put a few candleholde If it gets too warm for real plants, get realistic silk ones. rs and photos on the mantle piece as well.

Have fun.
