Black Friday is Coming – That Means Time to Shop for Holiday Gifts

Gift-buying mania is about to strike, in the form of Black Friday. But instead of blindly following the herds to the mall for a post-Thanksgiving shopping binge this year, we’d like to propose some of our favorite gifts: Fireplace accessories! Give all the folks on your list the gift of a cozier house and a more stylish hearth. Here are some ideas for warming the hearts and homes of your loved ones.

Fire Screens

Fire screens add safety and style. You can find them in classic or modern designs. We favor the durability of handcrafted solid steel, which harkens back to the days of blacksmithing. A fire screen instantly dresses up your hearth.

Fireplace Tools

All fire builders need tools. This is another accessory that reflects a wide range of styles. Browse antique stores for your friends who love old stuff, or go to a department store for shiny and contemporary tools. Do you have any King Arthur fans on your list? Make their knight before Christmas with this unique fire tool set. If rustic lumberjack is more their style, consider something like this unique juniper tool set:

Log Racks

Big or small, rectangular or rounded, indoor or outdoor, there’s a lot of ways to store logs. We like the graceful arc styles that hold about an eighth of a cord of wood for inside use, and heavy-duty racks for outside. There are tons of styles to choose from and depending on your taste, you can get everything from industrial to sleek when it comes to log racks for your home.  Checkout a few of our favorites below.

A New Mantel

If you really, really like somebody on your list, how about giving them a gorgeous new mantel? Holidays don’t get much better than a brand new mantel hung with stockings on Christmas morning.

Whether you plan on braving the crowds and shopping in stores on Black Friday or opt for staying home in your pajamas in front of your own fire and shopping online. At Old World Stoneworks, we wish you the start of a glorious holiday season and a Happy Thanksgiving.
