I want this fire surround - DH says it's horrid. What do you think?

[LynetteScavo]

Should I just go ahead and bid on it anyway?

oh no - terrible

It looks like a forth form design and tech project

I quite like it in theory, but agree about the dusting.

Something like this, a bit simpler?

its worse than that...
beside her pain walls she has sick soaked sisal.

nah. Still not very Home and Garden

I like it.
and I don't dust so the ledgy bits wouldn't bother me

No, we left the sick soaked sisal in our rented Victorian palce

Another vote for your DH.

Modern would look OK with fifties?

Ooh I've got a disproportionate fire surround.

But it's not my fault, I didn't put it in, I promise. I wouldn't have done it.

in you palce Lynette

You know, it does a bit. Each time I consider it, I think "what was he thinking? no taste, no sense of proportion. All fur coat and no knickers." Etc.
