For those of you with a decorative mantelpiece, or just a nonfunctioning fireplace, you can still have a roaring fire without installing a chimney. Brand consultancy firm Partners & Spade has commissioned artist Ann Wood to create custom hearth paintings made to measure for your mantel with prices beginning at $1,500. Customers can specify the style of the andirons and mantel border, and even the color of the flames. Before you wait the estimated four to five weeks for completion, though, if you're in the NYC area, check out the real thing at the Partners & Spade outpost at 40 Great Jones Street. How 'bout that for throwing Wood on the fire?

What a great Idea. And no worries about a fire.
1I seriously hate things like this, and I have no idea why.
2i don't mind this idea so much, but why is the mantelpiece floating in the sample picture? that just looks odd.
3This is cool if you want it to look like you have a burning fire all year long. This is more appealing for the winter time. There are different fireplace inserts, electric fireplaces, and portable fireplaces to use instead of a real fire as well.
4I. Love. This. Must blog about it myself. The flames in the artwork are phenomenal.
5No offense but I think this is so silly.
6Lame.
