Before you festoon it with garlands and gild it with glitz, pay respect to your fireplace with accessories it can wear proudly year round. During this bare-branched, frosty-morning time of year nothing is more welcoming than a well-dressed hearth. Here are some finds that are heavy on style but easy on the budget. —Diane

Owl Andirons with Reflective Glass Eyes, $45

These woodsy wisemen make me think of a cozy study filled with the scent of pipesmoke and old books. They pack a big visual punch for this price.

Hammered Fireplace Screen, $42

Utilitarian and sleek. The owner of this fireplace wants nothing to interfere with his flame-flickering experience.

Dark-stained Bellows with Stud Detailing, $46

Yes! Bellows without a "brass" eagle! I love the rock n' roll vibe of the leather and studs.

Panacea Log Tote, $12

Tote with carrying handles slides right into place on the steel stand. In-stalled!

Panacea 5-piece Fireplace Tool Set, $31

No messin' around! The beauty is in the simplicity of this set with spare design and wooden handles.

Gathering pieces with a similar (but not matching) look creates a feeling of effortless style. What's your style? I can help you figure out what it is and put it all together on a budget. Here's how.
