Hi Becky! Certified horticulturist here - just wanted to mention that Monsteras like above average humidity, so I would keep close watch on yours. Being too close to a fireplace can really dry out the plant and because it's sentimental and so beautiful, I would hate for you to lose some or all of your plant baby! Love, love, love the fireplace and new tile! Your house is such a dream!

The only thing that is missing from the fireplace is a big pot of water to put humidity into the space. Plus this fireplace is better for an power outage or when you're snowed in. I remember being a kid ( and later when I lived in my childhood home as an Adult) my Mother always had hot water at the ready even when they put the bigger wood stove in the basement because she had a huge blue speckled pot on it. But she also used it to make chili and stews on cold days that simmered all day long and the best homemade spaghetti sauce was made by a Friend's Mom the same way. My Mother would have my little brother and myself pretend that we were like Little House on the Prairie, tho we lived more like the Big Woods lol. We made Maple syrup on snow and did art projects and she would read us chapters of the books. Something she always did at bedtime so in the afternoon it was special. But she also used an old Dutch oven to cook treats in or cook a chicken or roast on the stove top and the best was when she made popcorn for us on it. As much as my Brother and I didn't look forward to lugging wood to the basement every Summer or having to go down in the winter to bring it upstairs to feed the fire. It made memories that we will have forever and we were happy that we were so warm when so many other people had wait for the power to come back on to be warm. I still remember after big storms and outages, when all was restored, watching the news on the 19 inch black and white TV, on one of the 3 channels that worked in the middle of nowhere, horrified by the many people who froze to death, or lost their lives/ family's due to fires started by someone desperate to warm their family, using candles or the worst one whole family's lost to carbon monoxide from the old gas heaters.

Another vote for the pouffe! Back in the 70s, Mum made a simple square/cube pouffe out of a huge old Ayrshire X (red and white) cowskin "floormat" that she'd been given, but never really liked the colour and it didn't really fit in any room or with her decor. She cut the mat into a t-shape, similar to if you were making a paper cube in math class, and used shoe grade contact "cement" (not actually cement but a heavy duty glue that she used to half sole and heel our school shoes to get a bit more wear out of...) to glue it all together, then blanket stitched all of the edges with leather thonging. She left the last flap unglued so she could restuff if needed, then used old newspapers stacked up to stuff it, then stitched the last side closed. I remember it was solid and heavy as, but it was soft enough to sit on for a few hours without getting a sore bum, and ended up being about 2&1/2 foot cubed... she must've had that thing for about 30 years, and when it started looking a bit threadbare, she'd make slip covers for it and change the cover whenever she changed the decor... she was very handy with all sorts of things...🙂 🙃🐨🇦🇺

I grew up in the 70's and I love all the retro finds you put into your decor. The shinny tiles will be easy to clean and they have the right colour. We've had a wood stove for thirty years, and we love it! Power can go out, not a problem, I even cooked on it. It's messy and alot of work, making everything dusty, but there is no heat like it! At the price of oil and electricity these days, people are going back to using wood. Our old house would be freezing without it as the oil furnace doesn't even come close to keeping the house warm. You'll just want to make sure to sweep your pipe once a year to get the build-up off to avoid cheminey fire. Job well done! Can't wait to see more rooms done!

For the awesome RETRO RECORD PLAYER: My partner said the potentiostat is clogged with carbon buildup on the contacts within the dial. There is a spray they used to sell that you spray a bit and then twist the knob to and fro to coat the contacts. He said you could find it online, but maybe also at Guitar Center or a audiophile hi-fi stereo shop (if those exist ANYWHERE anymore), or maybe call around at a small appliance repair shop (like a sewing machine, vacuum, etc type place).

The fancy tile shop story reminded me of a video of someone talking about the difference between being fashionable vs stylish. Being fashionable is chasing trends, being on top of it, and spending the $$$. But being stylish is having your own style, which means you don't have to always be spending so much since you can stay true to your own style by not constantly buying the newest and shiniest thing. Having your own style is timeless. edit: the point of the video was arguing with someone saying that to have style and be fashionable you must have a lot of money. But I think it applies in some ways to even doing your own house style (which may still be expensive to reno, but if it's your own style it will last far longer).

Excellent tiling job! One suggestion on grout: Coloured grout tends to go black or dark grey in certain high traffic areas. With your fireplace, the soot will fall and stain your grout just in front leaving the sides and back beige which isn’t a good look. To avoid these issues it’s generally best to stay away from light or coloured grout and go directly with medium to dark grey.
