DISCOVERING AND UNCOVERING THE HIDDEN CHIMNEY
There are 2 beautiful chimneys seen on our new roof. One is to the fabulous fireplace in the living room....the other one took a little detective work. It seems at one time there may have been a second fireplace in the kitchen nook but has since been covered by drywall and concrete. We had no idea what we would find behind those walls but we did know that if we could expose that brick it could add such charm to the kitchen and the eating nook. I have always loved the look of old exposed brick walls.. Sooo....Bob got off a little early today and headed over there in his scrubs and went to work! 70 minutes later, this is what was exposed. It is enough to get us excited about what it will look like as more is uncovered. Will take a few more pics this weekend. Have a great Friday....the weekend is almost here!

i agree, i love the exposed brick! it will look wonderful. it is funny in older homes how you can see different aesthetics and eras as you peel back the layers!

How exciting! It's like you are on a treasure hunt, isn't it? That will look so cool to have that "original" brick fireplace exposed...hope it can all be uncovered without any damages! :)
