Moving Right Along

Moving right along with the September chimney project.

I found some thinner than regular brick pavers.... only one and a half inch thick.... to rebrick the chimney area in the kitchen. I flipped them so that the 4 inch side is visible and am stuffing cement mix behind them to adhere them to the chimney and plaster in order to keep the weight of all the bricks off the floor.

The cement mix behind the bricks also helps even up the whole surface behind the bricks... since some of the plaster came off the original chimney easily... and some... did not want to come off at all.

All in all it's working out well and will look rather cool when I am finished. Heading to The Beast tomorrow to work on some more rows. I am on row 18 and need to complete 30 to get to the ceiling.
