The holiday season is just around the corner and I am very much looking forward to it. I went out and bought a nice electric fireplace recently which was kind of a small investment all together. But the timing is perfect and it will be a great thing for this upcoming holiday season. I will be able to decorate it nicely and bring all of the festive joy into my home around the electric fireplace. Electric fireplaces are not cheap by any means, but I went for it because I really wanted a fireplace in my home. I grew up having a fireplace. It was one of the original authentic fireplaces. Back then there was no electric fireplaces or gas fireplaces. But today I am glad that electric fireplaces exist because I would never be able to afford to get a real authentic fireplace due to all the stuff that is involved. There would be construction and fireplace set up to pay for, and that is several thousands of dollars! I am not a rich person. If I were rich I may have done that and gone for the real deal type fireplace. But since I am not, the electric fireplace was the perfect solution to have no fireplace in my home. It will really make the holiday season come alive once it is all decorated. And the great thing about the electric fireplace is that the outside of it is heat resistant, so I can put all kinds of decorations on it and not worry about them burning up!
