Well here is what I came up with this weekend. I just threw it together in about a half hour out of scrap lumber a friend gave me from a deck...
This just floors me especially considering that most of the scented candles only need to be heated not actually burned to do their deal. Crazy.
Have you stayed in a house or cabin with open front lofts? I'd suggest a couple of test-runs before you commit to that design. It looks really...
I'm a firm believer in the opening of the door scenario for these reasons: First the addition of a large amount of air, more than the fire needs...
