The Fireplace Project - A Wood Mantel??

After I decided to go with version 2 of the Fireplace Project and not remove all the millwork around the fireplace, which I still think was a great idea (see the post where I detail the change here). I still had this piece of $10 wood I got at the reclaimed place laying around.

I was thinking ... what if I just lay it on top of the current mantel?? Yes, it needs to be cleaned up and trimmed but what's the verdict? Yes? No?

What Do You Think About That Wood Along The Top of The Mantel? 


UPDATE: The wood piece on top of the mantel was VETOED by every member of the family. So there. It's gone.
