Bolero Traditional Fireplace Mantel
for Galey Alix's Home Transformation
Galey Alix's Home
Bedroom Fireplace Mantel
We are thrilled and excited to share that our team had a chance to be part of Galey Alix’s home transformation. Our DreamCast Bolero Concrete Fireplace Surround takes center stage in the makeover of the primary bedroom at Galey’s home. The mantel is installed in Simply White color in a Smooth finish. Since her home is in Florida, Galey just wants the visual warmth of a fireplace, so she put in a candle set for that flickering fire effect. It’s a home from 1928 and she didn’t want to get rid of the real fireplaces. Instead the candles allow her to enjoy the fireplace without impact to her electrical bill.
BOLERO
Classic Fireplace Surround
At the heart of this bedroom makeover stands our BOLERO mantel, in Simply White color in a Smooth finish, setting the tone for a warm and cozy atmosphere. For additional insights and in-depth information about this makeover, we invite you to explore the Galey Alix website. We are delighted to be a part of this remarkable project with Galey.
It’s a bedroom fireplace bi$h! I upgraded the working fireplace in my primary bedroom because this farmhouse looking one no longer matches the cozy transitional vibe in the rest of my home. I wanted something romantic, clean and timeless. I also live in Florida so before you @ me, it’s rarely ever going to be used to burn logs, hence why I put candles in it. 😉
Getting rid of the raw wood mantel, all the shiplap lines and the sconces gave me a new clean surface to work with. It felt dated and had too much going on. I chose not to mix textures here (shocking, I know!) because I find simplicity to be more romantic and elegant when it comes to fireplaces. Don’t worry, I’ll layer textures into the bed linens and decor to make sure it still feels warm and cozy.😌
If you want to replicate anything you see here from the actual fireplace itself to the framed photographs it’s all linked on my website. Click the link in my bio, then ‘shop my projects’, then ‘SHOP GALEY’S HOME.’
This is not an ad but huge shout out to @dreamcastdesign where I order all my fireplaceS from, ya’ll make it so easy to do high-end custom built fireplaces! I linked this exact fireplace surround on my website for ya (follow instructions in previous paragraph).
And special thanks to my partner in crime and forever best friend @jcdelgado2020 who makes these projects not only possible, but so fun. Ilysm.
Project Details
Bedroom Fireplace
Opting for simplicity, Galey did not mix textures here because a clean and straightforward approach adds a touch of romance and elegance to the fireplace. Instead, she layers textures into the bed linens and decor to maintain a warm and cozy ambiance for the room.
Before Transformation
It was a raw wood mantel with shiplap lines and sconces. As the farmhouse style does not match the vibe of her home anymore, she decided to upgrade the mantel to our Bolero style.
After Transformation
The Bolero Mantel stands as a centerpiece with its elegant arch. Drawing inspiration from Catalonian courtyards’ sweeping colonnades, this traditional fireplace surround carries a timeless elegant appeal.

Concrete is a great option when it comes to design elements like fireplace mantels because it can be tailored to fit any space and aesthetic.
