Picked up the supplies and got to work.

Home depot guy suggested the use of a product there called "Stucco Patch". I'm going to use a 3/4" x 3/4" tile trowel. We'll see what kind of mess I get into. Yikes.

Partway through, couldn't wait and tossed some of the tile on top.

So the plan is to use some concrete backer board on the sides, then stucco and paint over top. Then I'll tile the top. Hopefully it comes together alright.

Now I need to head out and buy the hole saws on sale at CT. Always needed an excuse to buy those. Will cut out area for around the fireplace insert.
