How To Build a Hearth Step by Step German Schmear + Aging Wood Beams | Wood Stove Install PT 1

[@OurLittleNest]

For those who don’t know, German schmear mimics the look of irregular stones with heavy mortar joints, a style often found on centuries-old cottages and castles throughout northern Germany!

You are welcome

I’ve been putting flagstone down outside of my house and this reminds me of my stone placement a bit 😅 but yours is much much better quality 💛

[@OurLittleNest]

that sounds like such a fun project! we went to so many stone shops because the stone we wanted was so expensive!! we finally came across one that we were able to get it all for about $180 but it’s definitely pricey. if it were cheaper i’d love to do the whole back wall😍

[@leslieMClass80]

It’s beautiful! Looks like an Irish cottage ❤

How is Mama And Baby doing? Please Take It Easy, You Are Looking Amazing And Glowing,

[@barbaraknapp6970]

I'm too OCD for German schmear. I'd need even grout lines and then I'd be trying to clean the tops of the stones off...

[@OurLittleNest]

Definitely not a style for you then, I love how old and weathered it looks!

[@Thedar561]

@@OurLittleNesthe’s ocd when commenting on others peoples work but guaranteed that would change when he tried to do it himself, fair play with the project

[@xltranger98]

Mortar mix and a pointing trowel would’ve been easier and looked better

[@OurLittleNest]

It turned out exactly how it was supposed to. That's what German schmear is.
