What type of fireplace should I get?

If you’re lucky enough to have a built-in fireplace, you can update it with a new insert or by adding doors. For those who didn’t get so lucky, don’t worry; you have options! Freestanding stoves, either pellet or wood burning, will give you a classic cabin feel, and are generally more compact than other styles. For that grand, traditional curl-up-by-the-fire feeling, try a gel or electric fireplace. They look just like the real thing, and can even come equipped with a mantel and surround. If you’re limited on space, gather ‘round the table with a tabletop fireplace. Their sleek, modern designs can often be used indoors and out, so you can bring the fire to you.

What fireplace accessories are available?

After you determine what fireplace is best for you, you'll want to purchase all the accessories that go with it. If you have kids or pets, you'll need to invest in a fireplace screen, which will create a barrier between your living space and the fire itself. To keep the warmth going throughout the night, you'll need fireplace tools, such as matches and pokers, as well as a log basket or wood rack to ensure wood is always nearby. For an extra decorative element, consider installing an ornate or interesting mantel as well.
