I'm sure most of you are like ours.
The Basement becomes the home of old furnitures and other knick-knacks in the house that it's rarely featured on blogs.
Our is no exception. Other than the Movie Theater area (we D-I-Yed our movie screen HERE), Painting the walls and Changing the floors, it pretty much remained the same.
I did however added this...
Our counter-height table and chairs |
This was what we had BEFORE
Yup, plastic table wasn't cutting it for us |
I actually changed this over a year ago but just I haven't shared it to you all ;-)
Better |
I got the wooden dining set from a Resale store for less than $200 and I added the 2 upholstered chairs from World Market. The picture of Chicago is from IKEA which I recently purchased.
Great view from here too |
I had to have counter-height table and chairs because as you can see, part of our theater area is elevated so we needed taller chairs for sure to accommodate more people if needed ( great for big games and all).
Finally hung these too! |
Check out that thing on the right.... |
We finally hung our favorite movie posters on the wall ( this will needs some tweaking since my oldest son is currently so into Stanley Kubrick and insists we change "TITANIC" to "2001 Space Odyssey"!), and that big "spaceship-like" chair on the right was my Christmas gift to my hubs...
Osaki 4000-T Massage chair |
This massage chair was truly worth the money I think. It doesn't look great, but man, we can sit on it for a looong time and feel so relaxed and refreshed afterwards. If you want to know more about it just let me know. ;-)
Concession stand |
We also got a Candy Grabbing machine as a gift from a friend last Christmas and it was added to our concession stand.
Not much change |
Like I said, the basement is our cast-offs home too. So the leather sofa bed sectional sits here as well as other occasional chairs are here
My Moroccan table still has to make an appearance above ground ;-) |
It's suits well here since it can provide extra-seating for watching on the big screen.
We still have our gaming & exercise area across the sectional - it's too chaotic to show just yet.
That Gallery wall needs major tweaking too |
There you have it, our basement updates. We actually use this room often since we love movies and it's always nice and cool down here. I need to do a lot of tweaking as I mentioned, and hopefully, I can and I will soon. We'll see.. ;-)
Have a Nice day!
