Fireplace screen

I am looking to build a wooden fire screen. I remember seeing one with wood
designs on a blank panle that sat in fron of the fireplace during summer. I
tried Google but only found glass or similar screens. The type that I am
looking for was a type of mural on ply or similar. Any ideas?

Thanks

Garry

I built a fireplace screen that is basically 3 raised panel doors
attached together. The center door is twice as wide as the other two,
so it folds flat. You can get as creative as you want.

Gary I posted 4 pictures of a Walnut and Oak fireplace screen that I built
about 4 years ago. Posted on a.b.p.w.

Since it's not a functioning piece like a fireplace screen that is in
place while a fire is going and doesn't need to be operated, you have
to size it to your fireplace and it's essentially a decorated panel,
why not just wing it? Pick a picture of anything you like and put
that on a piece of plywood.
