"The basement project"
It is happening! We have a motivating event (hosting a lot of people for Christmas) that put the flame under Dave to get started with the basement. We have our good friend and expert designer Kim on the project with us.
Walls have come down, new walls are going up. It is a dusty mess, and everything that was in our basement has either been sold or moved to the garage. The carpet has been ripped out, new drywall and supplies purchased, and a plan is in place.
It will NOT be completely finished by Christmas. But the new walls will be built, and new colorful carpet tiles will be in place, and a new ceiling/lighting will be installed. We have plans to add some electronic equipment for a theater area and a hang out table/bar area, but those will have to be finished in 2015.
The main direction we've advised Kim to go is "colorful, lots of texture, and FUN". Dave said, "It's the basement, why not go crazy?" it will be polished and NICE looking, but also be very vibrant and lively.
Carpet tiles, you're wondering? A combination of lime green, bright pink, orange, brown, and cream....that's the beginning. *GRIN*
