Go to Home Depot, or Lowes. You can get more wood than that as straps and studs, especially from the 'banana' pile. The problem is that it's pine and does not provide as much heat as hardwood. The straps you can probably break over your knee but I'd advise a small saw for the studs, and maybe a hatchet to split them after cutting.

This wood is great for ambience fires since it burns bright and with a good crackle. It is also cleaner and less likely to have bugs. It burns quickly and you will be able to go to bed sooner after you've had enough unless you have filled the fire-place.

Bear in mind, if you want all night comfort, you won't need to get up periodically to keep an electric blanket or beating pad warm!

Enjoy!
