I feel like I’m cheating a bit with this one. Because it’s not DIY at all. I know I’m all about ‘BUILD’ what you love, but sometimes you just have to ‘BUY’ what you love. And that’s exactly what I did when I decided to turn the odd living room bump-out into a focal point.
There are TONS of awesome DIY faux mantels out there (everything from simple shelves to full-size fireplace frames) on Pinterest, but when I came across a simple pre-built crown molding shelf on amazon.com I couldn’t resist!

It was super easy to install, and with a mirror and some knick knacks, I think it’s the perfect faux mantel solution for our living room.
