Stone Fireplace TV Wall - Full Build
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 19 мар 2022
- It's my mom's birthday this month so I built her a custom stone fireplace wall with a walnut mantel and tv mount. Then I wrapped it up and revealed it on her birthday! Full step-by-step easy to follow fireplace wall build video with narration. Framing a fireplace wall, building a walnut beam mantel, installing stone veneer on fireplace, adding led pot lights.

A suggestion for anyone mounting a TV on a wall. A TV is not art work so don’t hang it high. Ideally it should be at a height where your eyes are at the midpoint of the screen when you’re sitting down.
Making something for your Mum that in turn makes her proud of her son.... that's absolutely priceless!!! Top job!!

It made me want to cry. Plus all the beautiful happiness all around not just him and mom but of the kids and wife (I'm assuming). Great job. Beautiful job.
You’re a great son! I love seeing men do things like this for their mom 💕
To quote Norman Bates from Psycho, "A boy's best friend is his mother"
As a Mom I’ll say that is a gesture of pure love. Amazing. The fireplace is beautiful, too. ❤️❤️
Your parents raised you right. You represent what's right in our society. "Happy Birthday Mom."
This is one of the nicest projects I’ve ever seen on RUclips. And the bonus reveal for Mom’s special day was priceless. Well done Sir. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Stone looks great. I would replace the tv mount with a mantel mount to bring the tv down over the fireplace so the viewing angle is better and can be easily moved back above the mantle afterwards.
What a beautiful heartfelt gift for your Mum!
I am not a pro, but a suggestion for anyone attempting this build, use cement backer board or wonder board instead of particle board, and always use a cement thin set that is rated to hold the tile or in this case, the stack stone you are using.
Yes. That's what my dad put for my house. Same build as well!
Exactly
Yeah unless you're installing this in a wet place, like your bathroom, cement backer boards aren't even close to being necessary. Good thing you're not a pro...
@@zimvader25 My SUGGESTION of cement board or wonder board may be over kill but its safe. I see you didn't comment on using a thin set that is rated for the stone or tile that is being installed so i guess thats how you would do it. Good thing ur not a pro either.
No one here is a pro so you all can shut it 😂
Such a special gift for your mom. I know that she will treasure it always 1) because it's beautiful and 2) her son made it for her. I know your mom must be very very proud of all you do. It's so sweet that you do things for your parents. You're a good son!
I once hand-knitted a cosy winter scarf for my mum and when I gave it to her she cried
What a lovely addition to this living room. I'm in awe how good it looks. You are amazing, and a wonderful son.
Beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great build and I love that you did it for your parents. I hope my kids are so thoughtful.
For those looking here, I would suggest for the corners they buy panels that have corner pieces. And I would suggest running a chalk line from the bottom to make sure the stone is installed level. Also, would probably use cement backboard because it's less expensive and has better adhesion.
Looks amazing, for me personally though I would not like my tv mounted that high, so when lounging on the couch I have too look up, also to get the best colour and contrast you are supposed too have your middle of the screen in your eye line view. Never the less a great present and it looks awesome good job.
What a wonderful son you are! I bet your Mom is happy she has you!
You did an amazing job. The devil tried to put a damper on your greatness with that mishap but you didn’t let that stop you. Happy birthday mom!
what a beautiful thing!
Great job, sir! And what a great gift for mom.....I'm sure she loved it! - I did!
Thank you!
Beautiful project! Really nice amount of specific instructions. Perfect video editing. Thank you!
Nothing makes my heart smiles more than a Son doing something special for his Mom ♥️
Looks very nice.
Absolutely beautiful!!! Blessings for you and your family🙏
Wow your mom looks great!!!! This was so sweet ❤
The wrapping!!! 🥹 So sweet! Such a beautiful gift!
Very pretty 😊
Really nice and great gift, but just one very critical mention for anyone wanting to do something like this: be careful with the height of the TV. This TV, while beautiful, is technically too high and would make you have to look up the whole time watching, ending up being uncomfortable for longer periods. Just think of sitting in the front row of a movie theater and that feeling of looking up all he time. It's good for show, but not for watching TV. Hate to be critical or rain on the parade, but it's a very common mistake people make when building these, and I hope to help others from making it. TV stands are made a certain height for a reason. If it's your main place for watching TV or movies, start with putting the TV at the proper height, Google it, and then build around it from there. If it's not your main place, and it's mainly for show, have at it, because it is pretty.
As someone who does this sort of thing professionally, I agree. The TV center line should be just slightly above your eye level when sitting. Anything higher becomes uncomfortable. Somewhere around 54" to center is a good starting point for a living room, 60" to center for a bedroom. It's a good place for art, not a TV.
good point!
I hardly ever watch a full video this long! its 1:48am and I have watched 3 of your videos! Just found your channel and I love, love your work! Keep it up! 🥰
You sir are the REAL MVP!!! 🙌🏽

Mom "thats mice honey, but now I have to look up so much and my neck hurt"
Wow, such a upgrade after that

the gift to your mom is priceless. God bless you all!!
This came out beautiful! Loved this video from beginning to end ❤
Great Job! You’re a great son.
Happy birthday mom. Dude I appreciate that u did this for her.
Great video - love that you left the part in where the piece fell off the wall!
One comment: I would be wearing safety glasses when using a wet saw myself.
Subscribed!
Thanks for watching! I have been trying to add more safety gear as I do more builds. Breaking the bad habits
Beautiful!! Great job and such a wonderful gift for your Mom ❤️❤️❤️
You did an amazing job .Happy birthday mom
Awww... Your mom must be so proud. I would just over the TV for viewing comfort.
Looks very similar to what I’ve built in my living room. Good job.
Cool! 😎👍
You do BEAUTIFUL work! Such a wonderful gift for your, Mama ~❣️
Great job!
Awww, you're an awesome son!!! What a beautiful gift!❤
Wow! I was mesmerized the whole video. I wish I had a talent like this.
Right...was saying that while watching the video...Ill be making everything...Lol
Wow, that’s absolutely beautiful!! Nicely done!❤️
Your parents are awesome and you’re such a great son. 👍🏻
That’s so nice…I know mom is happy for that!!!!!
not only can you build amazing but you can also do electrical work it looks amazing and you pretty much did it all by your self ! so cool
kek
Your video was on my home feed today. I've wanted to do something similar in my family room. Thank you for posting your project. I'd love to find a person to build this for me and I can use your project as a guide and inspiration. My husband and I are handy but not that ambitious so hiring it out sounds like a better idea. Love how it turned out.
Amazing! You did such great job
Great job buddy!! Your parents raised you right!!
Absolutely beautiful. I know your mom loves it
Awesome job! Looks stunning and such a nice thing to do for your mum. Love the videos and keep up the good work! 😊
Great Son and a Great Job.
Good job!!! You have a great talent
Ah, man, that shot of you and your mom near the end was awesome! Great job!
Beautiful! Love the stuff you build!
Thank you 😃
She must be so proud of you bro!
Absolutely stunning!
Fantastic channel Drew. Loved that you did this for your parents. Great job bro.
How much will it cost to make one like that?
What a super sweet son you are! 🥰🥰 Beautiful job ♥️
How precious.I will be your second mom. Thank you.
A homemade gift is better than anything store bought. It looks very nice. When you said you were feeling loopy, I thought it was because of the Bud Light lol. Glad you got over the Covid.
Thanks!
Without putting a downer on this awesome thing you did with awesome skills... How to people who have TVs above fireplaces not all have achey necks?
A lot of people have mentioned it and we have been using it for over 6 months now with no complaints. We are a tall family though so maybe that’s why 🤷♂️
@@DrewBuildsStuff Ha yeah maybe! It looks so smart. I just worry my short ass would succumb to the achey neck if I did something similar
Amazing job 👍
That was sweet!❤
I can’t help but notice that you barely even used a level, yet this build came out so perfect. Wow. Great work man. Your mom has got to be really proud of you for this. Amazing work
well he doesnt record everything lmao
@@Guape be that as it may, there’s always a hater somewhere.
@@GreenChronicles561 how is it hating? its common sense my guy. You think he built this in 12 minutes???? LMAO its a video
Would you be willing to share the brand of fireplace insert you used? It was a nice choice and looked great with your design.
Great Job!
Wow it’s looking high end product beautiful
Hi! I absolutely love. Where did you buy that white stone tile??
Looks great! I'm wondering a few things: how high did you mount the fireplace off the ground? How much space is on either side of the fireplace to the edge of the build out?
This is awesome, thanks so much for sharing!! We are going to do this
Nice job 👏 👍
This is the first video that I see and I must say you made that look so easy! AND it turned out great! It's great that you did that for your mom! 2 Thumbs up Drew!
The TV set seems too high😅
Great job makes the space look a lot more open and airy . Sheet rock would have been ideal for longterm but looks great man .
Patiently and meticulously designed and executed . Lovely and happy family now.
Can you share the brand and model of the fireplace insert
This is a nice build you did here !
I might mistaken but did you hide junction boxes behind the stone wall ? I don't know about where you live in Canada, but in Quebec it is forbidden by the electrical code to hide junction boxes...
It is forbidden everywhere. You need to leave them serviceable. These people are idiotic hacks.
Beautiful
This looks amazing! My wife wants me to do something like this *cough exactly like this cough*. Question though, when you ran the lag bolts in for the TV Mount, were they ran into the new studs or only into the OBX sheathing? I was trying to pay more attention to that part but it was hard to tell.
I would definitely try to make sure it goes into studs and whole framework attached into the stud in existing wall as well. TV over 65 inch is very heavy...
My god Drew! What an excellent job and an amazing Present! I wish I was as handy and skilled as you are.
Your poor mom. You took her nicely placed TV and put it up crazy high. Next birthday, you'll be paying for her neck adjustment
Haha everybody spends all day looking down at their phones, maybe this will cancel that out? 🤷♂️
The TV was at the proper high before the remodel.
I came here to comment this. The workmanship is amazing though.
Agreed, the skill, effort and intentions are good, but if someone changed the height of my TV like that, I wouldn’t be happy. Unwatchable. Can’t tell how big the room is, but maybe a Mantel Mount could solve for it, otherwise this is a downgrade for anyone that actually uses their TV
Awesome work
That is very cool. You are good Son. Looks Amazing.🎉 Happy Birthday Mum, enjoy your SURPRISE!
The same mistake most people make when mounting a tv to a wall - far too high. A tv should be at eye level when you’re seated. Other than that it’s a nice job.
I can't imagine watching a movie like this.
Was just about to post the same comment. Looks great but completely non-functional. If you want a TV and fire, put the electrical fire above the TV.
Also heat from the fire will kill most TV's, particularly OLED TVs.
A fire place above the TV? Wtf are you talking about?
Same thing I was going to comment. Usually people in the US are forced to mount it this ridiculously high over fire places but he willingly made it that high.
I’ve got a fireplace tv Mount which swing the tv away from the wall and drops it down by 2.5 foot. Which is perfect for this sort of setup
A year late, but here I go. When you put the TV at that height in such a small room you are creating ergonomic problems. Designers always think of design over physical well being.
Wow amazing, Happy Birthday to your beautiful mom 🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈
what a beautiful gift. Priceless!!!
I really don’t understand why all of a sudden everyone is putting their TVs close to the ceiling when they should be at eye level when you’re sitting down…..
TV too high, other than that pretty cool
Well done. What an awesome gift- your a great son
