Rec Room Remodel Complete!

We have lived in our house now for over 9 years, and for over 9 years Aaron has been wanting to redo our rec. room. The wood paneling is just SO dated and dark - plus, as most people know, our first home was a trailer and the paneling was just too traileresque. Not that the little trailer didn't serve us well, we loved it while we lived there, but we did always hate the walls.

So, since we had the 10 days holiday vacation we though that would be the perfect time to tackle this project. Of course it did end up taking more time and money than planned, projects like this always do, but it was worth it totally. We love our new little hang out! Complete with the new door to keep the heat in.








We still have a few other things we want to do to the room, mostly decorating wise, but it sure has a much more homey, relaxing feel to it now. We even rearranged things to make movie viewing and game playing more intimate. After all, that's what we do in this room. We closed it up quite a bit and like it much better.

It looks GREAT!!! More homey and cozy and nice! You did a great job! One question...Marylinn is concerned about the saddle? She wanted to know where you put it?

we still have it ;o) I wouldn't let Aaron get rid of it. At the moment it is in the rafters of the garage. I know I don't have any horses, but I just can't bring myself to get rid of it.

Well glad to hear that you still have it because Marylinn was really concerned!
