Those beautiful modern farmhouse fireplaces with their light and airy whitewashed finishes serve as a beautiful focal point for any living room.

On the other hand, if your fireplace is outdated you can re-decorate the rest of the room to your heart’s content. But, it won’t change the look of your fireplace.

But no worries! You won’t need a brand new fireplace or even a professional painter to come in. I have an incredibly easy way to whitewash a brick fireplace with nothing more than a little white paint and clear mixing glaze.

I turned our eyesore of an orange fireplace into what is now my favorite feature in our home with a light whitewash!

I’ll admit. When I told my husband I was going to “whitewash the fireplace” he rolled his eyes because he cringes at the thought of painting over perfectly good brick. And I get that!

Also, you don’t have to lose the integrity and character of your home’s original brick color as with a painted brick fireplace. With a whitewashed brick fireplace, some of that brick color will still show through – and you can pick which bricks do and which will be covered!
