A suggestion for anyone mounting a TV on a wall. A TV is not art work so don’t hang it high. Ideally it should be at a height where your eyes are at the midpoint of the screen when you’re sitting down.

Making something for your Mum that in turn makes her proud of her son.... that's absolutely priceless!!! Top job!!

She must be so proud of you bro!

I am not a pro, but a suggestion for anyone attempting this build, use cement backer board or wonder board instead of particle board, and always use a cement thin set that is rated to hold the tile or in this case, the stack stone you are using.

As a Mom I’ll say that is a gesture of pure love. Amazing. The fireplace is beautiful, too. ❤️❤️

You’re a great son! I love seeing men do things like this for their mom 💕

Very pretty! Be kind to each other. Stay safe. Love to all

I once hand-knitted a cosy winter scarf for my mum and when I gave it to her she cried

Stone looks great. I would replace the tv mount with a mantel mount to bring the tv down over the fireplace so the viewing angle is better and can be easily moved back above the mantle afterwards.

This is one of the nicest projects I’ve ever seen on KZfaq. And the bonus reveal for Mom’s special day was priceless. Well done Sir. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My god Drew! What an excellent job and an amazing Present! I wish I was as handy and skilled as you are.

What a beautiful heartfelt gift for your Mum!

Your parents raised you right. You represent what's right in our society. "Happy Birthday Mom."

Such a special gift for your mom. I know that she will treasure it always 1) because it's beautiful and 2) her son made it for her. I know your mom must be very very proud of all you do. It's so sweet that you do things for your parents. You're a good son!

You did an amazing job. The devil tried to put a damper on your greatness with that mishap but you didn’t let that stop you. Happy birthday mom!

Thank you so much for this video! Surprisingly enjoyed it❤also so moved by this meaningful birthday gift!

Looks amazing, for me personally though I would not like my tv mounted that high, so when lounging on the couch I have too look up, also to get the best colour and contrast you are supposed too have your middle of the screen in your eye line view. Never the less a great present and it looks awesome good job.

What a lovely addition to this living room. I'm in awe how good it looks. You are amazing, and a wonderful son.

What a wonderful son you are! I bet your Mom is happy she has you!

Thats absolutely AMAZING!!! I’ve been wanting one of this for years!!! Your mom is definitely proud of you! GOOD JOB!!!!!!

what a beautiful thing! Great job, sir! And what a great gift for mom.....I'm sure she loved it! - I did! Thank you!

Great build and I love that you did it for your parents. I hope my kids are so thoughtful. For those looking here, I would suggest for the corners they buy panels that have corner pieces. And I would suggest running a chalk line from the bottom to make sure the stone is installed level. Also, would probably use cement backboard because it's less expensive and has better adhesion.

Loved it! Lucky mom :)

Awww... Your mom must be so proud. I would just over the TV for viewing comfort.

Absolutely beautiful!!! Blessings for you and your family🙏

I hardly ever watch a full video this long! its 1:48am and I have watched 3 of your videos! Just found your channel and I love, love your work! Keep it up! 🥰

Nothing makes my heart smiles more than a Son doing something special for his Mom ♥️

Great job makes the space look a lot more open and airy . Sheet rock would have been ideal for longterm but looks great man .

Beautiful project! Really nice amount of specific instructions. Perfect video editing. Thank you!

Wow your mom looks great!!!! This was so sweet ❤

Happy birthday mom. Dude I appreciate that u did this for her.

lol awe this made me cry. Wishin my mom was still around so I could make her a beautiful fireplace

This came out beautiful! Loved this video from beginning to end ❤

Your video was on my home feed today. I've wanted to do something similar in my family room. Thank you for posting your project. I'd love to find a person to build this for me and I can use your project as a guide and inspiration. My husband and I are handy but not that ambitious so hiring it out sounds like a better idea. Love how it turned out.

Great Job! You’re a great son.

Looks very nice.

Beautiful!! Great job and such a wonderful gift for your Mom ❤️❤️❤️

Mom "thats mice honey, but now I have to look up so much and my neck hurt"

You did an amazing job .Happy birthday mom

Your parents are awesome and you’re such a great son. 👍🏻

Great video - love that you left the part in where the piece fell off the wall! One comment: I would be wearing safety glasses when using a wet saw myself. Subscribed!

It’s beautiful! You’ve got a lot of talent!

Great job buddy!! Your parents raised you right!!

How precious.I will be your second mom. Thank you.

Really nice and great gift, but just one very critical mention for anyone wanting to do something like this: be careful with the height of the TV. This TV, while beautiful, is technically too high and would make you have to look up the whole time watching, ending up being uncomfortable for longer periods. Just think of sitting in the front row of a movie theater and that feeling of looking up all he time. It's good for show, but not for watching TV. Hate to be critical or rain on the parade, but it's a very common mistake people make when building these, and I hope to help others from making it. TV stands are made a certain height for a reason. If it's your main place for watching TV or movies, start with putting the TV at the proper height, Google it, and then build around it from there. If it's not your main place, and it's mainly for show, have at it, because it is pretty.

Awesome job! Looks stunning and such a nice thing to do for your mum. Love the videos and keep up the good work! 😊

That’s so nice…I know mom is happy for that!!!!!

Wow, such a upgrade after that

the gift to your mom is priceless. God bless you all!!

Looks very similar to what I’ve built in my living room. Good job.

What a super sweet son you are! 🥰🥰 Beautiful job ♥️

The wrapping!!! 🥹 So sweet! Such a beautiful gift!

Defenetly need something like this at my house. Specially for mom♥️♥️

Wow, that’s absolutely beautiful!! Nicely done!❤️

I hope my sons Can tackle something like that one day for their special lady… or me 🥰. That would make me proud “as I love projects”…

Looks amazing. If a job like this could be done in 1 day within 6 months instant millionaire

not only can you build amazing but you can also do electrical work it looks amazing and you pretty much did it all by your self ! so cool

You do BEAUTIFUL work! Such a wonderful gift for your, Mama ~❣️

That is very cool. You are good Son. Looks Amazing.🎉 Happy Birthday Mum, enjoy your SURPRISE!

Man these parents hit the JACKPOT with this kid! I did too that is how I know!!

Wow! I was mesmerized the whole video. I wish I had a talent like this.

absolutely gorgeous!!

Great job. Looks real nice. Somehow though, that TV looks a bit too high for comfort

Wow ,that's really beautiful Drew ,Happy Birthday Drew's mom !!! 😊🎉🎂🍨🎈🎈🎈🎁🎊

Without putting a downer on this awesome thing you did with awesome skills... How to people who have TVs above fireplaces not all have achey necks?

Ah, man, that shot of you and your mom near the end was awesome! Great job!

Awesome.... That's summarize everything I want say.

Well done. What an awesome gift- your a great son

Beautiful! Love the stuff you build!

Fantastic channel Drew. Loved that you did this for your parents. Great job bro.

I enjoy watching this

Awesome 🎁4 your mom bro 👌🏻

Absolutely beautiful. I know your mom loves it

I can’t help but notice that you barely even used a level, yet this build came out so perfect. Wow. Great work man. Your mom has got to be really proud of you for this. Amazing work

Awww, you're an awesome son!!! What a beautiful gift!❤

Nice job, looks beautiful. I’m surprised as little adhesive as you used it held. They do make some strong adhesives. One amateur mistake is the tv is to high. When you sit down it’s supposed to be the center of your eye.

A homemade gift is better than anything store bought. It looks very nice. When you said you were feeling loopy, I thought it was because of the Bud Light lol. Glad you got over the Covid.

How much will it cost to make one like that?

Wish someone would do something nice like this for my birthday..

Looks great! I'm wondering a few things: how high did you mount the fireplace off the ground? How much space is on either side of the fireplace to the edge of the build out?

Would you be willing to share the brand of fireplace insert you used? It was a nice choice and looked great with your design.

I am pretty sure she did not notice the upside-down gift wrap paper. Great accomplishment.

I felt very optimistic actually, thanks for sharing your mom a little of your great talent and gift, it's wonderful to have a son like you caring for his family and parents. I'm really admired by you and your great job .. Keep up I'm really enjoying watching your videos and giving you my full support 🙏❤😊

This is the first video that I see and I must say you made that look so easy! AND it turned out great! It's great that you did that for your mom! 2 Thumbs up Drew!

Hi! I absolutely love. Where did you buy that white stone tile??

Wow amazing, Happy Birthday to your beautiful mom 🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈

Mom is proud of her son. Nice to see.

Can you share the brand and model of the fireplace insert

This is a nice build you did here ! I might mistaken but did you hide junction boxes behind the stone wall ? I don't know about where you live in Canada, but in Quebec it is forbidden by the electrical code to hide junction boxes...

You sir are the REAL MVP!!! 🙌🏽

You are a good son. She is sooooo proud of you!!!! Good job!

This looks amazing! My wife wants me to do something like this *cough exactly like this cough*. Question though, when you ran the lag bolts in for the TV Mount, were they ran into the new studs or only into the OBX sheathing? I was trying to pay more attention to that part but it was hard to tell.

The TV set seems too high😅

Smart man and very good son

Great job man. Mother must be proud

Your poor mom. You took her nicely placed TV and put it up crazy high. Next birthday, you'll be paying for her neck adjustment

The same mistake most people make when mounting a tv to a wall - far too high. A tv should be at eye level when you’re seated. Other than that it’s a nice job.

what a beautiful gift. Priceless!!!

WOW…I always wanted to do something like this…What a good son. Enjoyed the video very much!

The TV was at the proper high before the remodel.
