Combine a 17 month old who likes to play in the fireplace, add the fact that the tree is most convenient in front of the fireplace to be out of the way, add a major huge draft coming from the fireplace that needs to be dealt with, add the want of a rustling fire in my living room without having to buy the wood or risk the life of my child who will most likely want to play with the fire, and some cheap cardboard and felt and you get:
Voila!
It blocks most of the draft that I've tried to rid in many other attempts, keeps my daughter out of the fireplace, and allows her to play with it...it's just felt pieces on a homemade felt board that creates that beautiful fire for the fireplace with no risk to the life and limbs of Lexi. Sometimes, I like my ideas. Can you tell?

How cute is that! Oh my gosh, what a clever idea! Your creativity never ceases to amaze me.
Love, Mom
I wanted to do something like that in our house but i was thinking along the lines of construction paper but i think i might have to steal your idea instead! I love it!
