Hey guys I need help on a new hearth design. I already have one made of brick, i was just going to tile over the brick or stone it. Don't want to spend a lot of money. i am lying tile around the hearth and my wife hates the brick look. I love the brick look, but have to keep her happy. she also wants me to put a matel on it but i don't think that would work because the heat from the stove. anyone have some sweet hearth pictures they could post to help me out. Thanks
