The English name for fireplaces and ovens is Fireplace. Many Western families will install different styles of fireplaces as long as their housing structure permits. They not only become a decorative highlight in the room, but are also very practical. So I paid attention to the structure and function of these fireplaces very early on, and dreamed of owning a fireplace of my own one day. This is a place in the living room. Use this location to make an electric antique fireplace, and a TV can be placed on it.

The front of the panel is made into an arc. In order not to look dull, a carved decorative strip is pasted on it

There are many styles of antique fireplaces. This one is made of bronze and is decorated with real coal mines. This part is not a heating device. There is an orange-red lamp inside, which looks like burning coals. There is also a very special screen on the back. Realistic "fireworks".
Make a frame decoration around the heating device

The overall layout is reasonable, including an antique fireplace, DVD and audio equipment cabinet, and a TV stand.
Budget and time consumption: Because I really like this antique core heating device, I spent more than 5,000 yuan, and other materials were basically recycled. It lasted four weeks in my spare time.
Tip: Nowadays, tool and home appliance supermarkets will launch many assembled electric fireplaces, ranging from classic to modern. As long as the size allows, its not difficult to find one you like. Some require simple installation by yourself, but be sure to follow the instructions. In addition, fireplaces are very seasonal. After winter, many stores will sell them at half price on clearance. It is also an economical way to buy them at that time.
