"So now we pause.  Still.  Ponder.  Hush.  Wait.  Each day of Advent, He gives you the gift of time, so you have time to be still and wait.  Wait for the coming of God in the manger who makes himself bread for us near starved.  For the Savior in swaddlings who makes Himself the robe of righteousness for us worn out."  ~Ann Voskamp

Our fake fireplace makes a lovely little reading nook and provides an opportunity to be still and ponder during this Advent season.  Especially if you borrow big boots to keep your feet toasty.
