Which fireplace decorations are best?
There are few spaces in your home that won’t look better with a little extra decoration. Your fireplace is not one of them. Like with any décor, what looks great or terrible is a matter of taste. You also have to consider what kind of fireplace you have. For example, if you have a real one, you should probably stay away from things that can easily catch fire.
