Luminous black paint transformed this once-dreary fireplace located in Ontario's cottage country. Capped with a warm wood mantel, the photographers who live in this <a href="https://www.hgtv.ca/home-tours/photos/this-scandinavian-inspired-farmhouse-redefines-ontario-cottage-life-1919239/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Scandinavian-inspired space</a> finished the fireplace off with twin watercolours, a wooden deer head and wildflowers that are totally apropos.

Can we talk about the ubiquitous yet never boring gold French mirror? Whether in a foyer or over a fireplace, it is a huge hit. We love it in <a href="https://www.hgtv.ca/home-tours/photos/colourful-toronto-character-home-1920908/#" rel="noopener" target="_blank">this colourful Toronto home</a> because it plays off the space's heritage features. Sort of. The fireplace and millwork are indeed original to the 1909-built home, but the stone facade is actually a DIY project that came together, incredibly enough, with marble adhesive.

This bungalow may only be 950 square feet but boy is it ever amazing. The heritage home in Toronto's Leslieville neighbourhood is <a href="http://www.greatcanadianhomes.ca/photos/the-gorgeous-fireplace-in-this-tiny-heritage-bungalow-will-have-you-saying-wait-what-1911220/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">filled with glamorous touches</a>. A replica of an original mantel and hearth has architectural gravitas in the living room, where ethereal artwork has contemporary presence, too (head's up on that tin ceiling!)

Floppy plants are exactly what you should be shopping for if you want to imitate the look of this cottage-y fireplace located <a href="https://www.hgtv.ca/home-tours/photos/anna-church-toronto-artist-124-year-old-house-1915086/#" rel="noopener" target="_blank">in a century Toronto home</a>. (Droopy leaves are eye-catching.) Be sure to layer in large-scale vintage pieces — a tubby green glass bottle, a boat buoy. You get the drift.

After a fuss-free aesthetic? Keep the clutter at bay and select pieces judiciously.

The graphic artwork is a snap the homeowners took of the Spanish steps in Rome — and blowing it up was budget-friendly. The stunning patchwork Spanish tile in the cavity is from Mettro Source and jugs and bowls along the mantel prove that these items should not only live in the kitchen.

On top, the mantel gets the homespun treatment. Cohesive natural elements, from the greenery to the woodsy mirror, offer a down-to-earth charm.

An authentic Saarinen Tulip table in front is a nice way to cozy up to the flames.

When decorating a fireplace mantel, a rule of thumb is to create a focal point. Which is the case with this retro set-up that starts with that vintage sunburst mirror. (The blue brick is also eye-catching.) Then build around the focal point — play around with all those fab knickknacks you've collected over the years. <a href="https://www.hgtv.ca/home-tours/photos/montreal-home-opposite-of-minimalism-1905048/#" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Tour this maximalist Montreal home here</a>.
