Oh the weather outside.....

This gray sky and chilly weather makes me want to curl up in front of a fire with a good book (just ordered a slew of the gorgeous Penguin Classics to get me through the winter).  My fireplace really doesn't put out much warmth so its been made into a focal point of the LR and nothing else.  But a girl can dream....here are a few that I would gladly warm up to.

Loving the painted antique looking mantel, really makes it modern and fresh.
