A fireplace is always a great idea, whether it’s a real, a faux or just a non-working one, a built-in, a double-sided or mobile one, it’s always about coziness and a welcoming feeling. Though many homeowners tend to remove non-working fireplaces, I’d recommend to keep them and just style them right – with candles, LEDs, use them as storage spaces or display some beautiful items. Today’s roundup is dedicated to the latter idea.
A non-working or a faux fireplace is a perfect piece to show off your artworks and maybe empty frames if they are beautiful. This is a non-traditional gallery wall and you can easily switch the pieces anytime. The same goes to potted plants of various kinds – display them in your fireplace in a stand or without it, just keep in mind that if these plants require much natural light, this is a bad idea. Vases, antlers, seashells, colorful firewood and many other pieces can be displayed in your fireplace. Don’t forget to style the mantel, too, if you have it – make them cohesively beautiful.

If you enjoy changing seasonal decor, a non-working fireplace is your best friend as it can easily become a centerpiece in your room and the best decor display ever. Style it for the fall with pinecones, pumpkins, leaves and other stuff and don’t forget the mantel if any. Decorate it for summer filling it with seashells, blooms and beach sand in jars. Make it winter-ready with faux snow, buntings and garlands, candles and Christmas ornaments. Refresh it for spring with bright blooms, greenery, pretty bold artworks and so on. Get inspired to use your non-working or faux fireplace at its best!
