flickr of inspiration: custom fireplace screen by william mills


How much do we love this custom fireplace screen spotted on Flickr, built by William Mills, a bicycle maker by trade? The screen was made at the request of friends, whose home renovation got a recent boost from the HGTV show Don’t Sweat It. Love that you can access the fire without moving the whole screen, and love the color, too! (Looks so great with that glass.) See before-and-after photos (including a nifty outdoor barbecue built-in) here. See the screen-making process here. The show will air on HGTV sometime in the fall.

Wow. It looks exactly like a hockey net. Sports fans will love it.

Sure — if they’re playing hockey *inside* the fireplace…
