Happy Saturday, Everyone!

I hope you had a great week. I’m so excited about today’s post. Normally my DIY posts are about woodworking but this one is a little different.

When we first moved into our house, there wasn’t a cover over our fireplace. It was just open for anyone to climb on in – mainly Teddy (our golden retriever), but I also had little relatives that come over sometimes who might have thought it was a good idea to climb in there.

I knew that eventually we would have a baby (spoiler alert-we did) and that it would need to be covered. I looked everywhere for a more affordable option than what I was finding online or in stores. These things can get really expensive. We had just bought our house so I was looking for something a little more budget friendly – almost free. Hahaha.
