I want to cover the top part of my fireplace, which is brick. Should I use drywall or plywood? Also, I want to paint the bricks around the bottom part of the fireplace. Do I need to use a special type of paint, i.e. heat resistant? Thanks

Have you had any luck ??? I have an old ugly/ drab fireplace too.

Mine is the color of concrete, and I want to change it. It's too dull.

Please let me know if you find anything. In the mean time, I'll look some more..
Thanks, Vickie
