Making a fire in a fireplace can be a cozy and rewarding experience. Start by ensuring the chimney is clean and the damper is open for proper ventilation. Place some crumpled newspaper or fire starters at the bottom, then add kindling in a crisscross pattern. Finally, lay larger logs on top. Light the paper and enjoy the warmth! Have you tried making a fire before, or is this your first time? Do you plan to use it for warmth or ambiance?
