- Hi everyone, today I'm sharing with you how I've made a faux fireplace out of XPS foam boards, hope you'll like it!
Here is what I used for making this:
XPS insulation foam boards - I've used 3 boards 24 by 48’ with 4/5' thickness, unfortunately I haven't find the reasonable priced ones on Amazon, but people in the reviews said it is much cheaper to buy these at a local hardware store. Here is the link for them just to give you idea what to look for, this is an insulation material. I"ve promised to provide a cutting plan, but it seems these sheets have different sizes in other contries, especially taking into account we have metric system, so I'll just leave you the plan with dimensions of all the parts, so that you could use them for your own cutting plan.
XPS sheets on Amazon: amzn.to/3kDjavQ
a crown foam molding, mine is 1 ½ by 2 ¾ ', these are sold in lond pieces, one piece is enough for the project. Here is something similar to what I've used:
a narrow foam trim for the lower part, mine is 4/5' wide, adjust it to your foam boards thickness.
a wide foam base molding, mine is 2 3/4' wide, it is to cover the gap between the firbox and the column and go a little further, so that the firebox was a bit covered by this trim, this looks more realistic.
Here are all the templates of my fireplace. If you decide to make it out of wood, please don't forget to adjust it for the material thickness, this one is for 4/5' thickness. I've also included both inches and millimetres system dimensions, please note the millimetres are more precise here, though I've tried my best to convert them into inches as precisely as I could))

This is the nicest Fireplace ive ever seen...Just gorgeous...❤❤❤
You did a Great Job on this Project. I am a retired Master Carpenter of over 50 years, and I am impressed in the talent I see . Keep it up you are doing Great
Amazingly beautiful. As I don’t have a fire place THIS IS PERFECT!! Thank you so much for sharing 🥰🥰
Amazing job. I made myself a cardboard fireplace last year covered with contact paper, but I think I will try this. Definitely more sturdy. I left mine up all year. I have a very small space & couldn’t find one small enough to fit. Thank you.
When you painted the bricks diagonally with white paint, I said WOW out loud. That looks amazing!
What a fabulous project!!! It looks amazing!! ❤️
You are so talented I'm so glad to be able to make the first comment! I have very much enjoyed watching all of your videos and hope you do very well on TH-cam

Irene every thing you do is so perfect, you seem like you are an arts teacher do you live in the States? you speak very good English.the fireplace is incredible!
Oh, thanks a lot, you're so kind) no, I'm living in Russia)
Wow! Beautiful outcome. ❤️
It’s absolutely gorgeous but you are right, not an easy DIY for a removable holiday decoration. I’ll see how it goes.
great job beautiful
A lot of work. I have no patience. You did awesome 👍🏻❤
Awesome work! What is the grey material you put between the bricks and what kind of paint do you use for the surfaces? Many thanks for your help! x x
Looks so good! How or do you store it?
you could also put an old tv in there and stream a real looking fire most would think it was an electric fireplace and you could use it year round
Gorgeous, were you a set decorator before all this?
You could make a living at set design, that's if you haven't already done that? This turned out wonderful.
Thank you so much🥰
insane 🎉
That's so amazing!!! I might try to make it this year! What is the height of the whole thing (approximately)
Hi, it's about 80 sm
@@IrenesDIY You're awesome! Thank you so much!!! 🥰😘

Isn't that wood?? Beautiful job..❤
No, they're made of foam
The lower sections transcript link listed is currently a duplicate of the fire box template. Is there any way you could upload the correct template for the lower portion?

Hi, I'm sorry, I haven't seen your comment earlier( I've corrected the link, and here is the bottom part: drive.google.com/file/d/1rjlQEfOx6mkD0GLEDCW0S9svDCrYtYN3/view?usp=sharing
Wow you are very talented honey
How tall and wide is the finished fireplace?
Loved the end result using foam, great job! 👍 I was wondering though, if you're also good at making miniature diorama scale models of fireplaces ? Because I could use your expertise on how I should go about making a miniature version of one. Do you have an email where I could discuss further details about it? 👍
Sure, it's rosebook@yandex.ru!
@@IrenesDIY thank you so much! 🙏❤️💯
@@IrenesDIY Email has been sent too..I truly appreciate any help you could give me on my diorama project 😉
Can you post the measurements for the bottom portion? Also how thick is the boards you used?
Hi, I'm sorry, I haven't seen your comment earlier( I've corrected the link, and here is the bottom part: drive.google.com/file/d/1rjlQEfOx6mkD0GLEDCW0S9svDCrYtYN3/view?usp=sharing
The boards I'm using are 3 cm thick (this is just a bit thicker than 1").
You could place a television inside the firebox & stream a fire from TH-cam. You'll have fire AND the crackling sound!
What a wonderful💡 idea.. 😃 thanks
@@juellzzdrizzy You're welcome!
How tall is this?
Hi, it is 31 1/2' (80 cm)
A cutter, cutting mat, measuring stick and hot glue gun are tools that one would need to make this so I think the title is a bit deceptive. Beautiful job though.
Maybe she meant no power tools.
I meant no jigsaw or miter saw or something like this is needed)
BEWARE. I am guessing she did not double check the measurements she posted. This was a nightmare to make. Add to that the fact that the materials she used were from Russia, not the same as the US. Hers cuts like butter. Ours do not. Best cut with a bread knife.
This is beautiful but too much work for me
I love it!
