House Tour- Basement Family Room

It’s Friday….which means it’s time to continue on the house tour…

Now we are on to the areas where we haven’t really touched.

Here is the Family Room….

This space has good potential.  It’s 1 big open room. We haven’t done a lot to it because we have spent our “budget” working on the main floor.  You know, the floor that most people see. 

Also our decorating plans for this space sort of depend on whether we have children or not.

Sans children, I can picture a nice kitchenette and pool table on the left side of the room and some large framed vintage posters on the right side…but I can also see a big old farmhouse style table for board games and arts and crafts on the left and Disney movie watching on the right.

At this point in our lives, both have their pros and cons.

Either way, we do plan to add some sort of entertainment center (possibly build it??) in this area...

We will also probably change out the Simpsons theme for something a little more grown-up…but who’s in a hurry to grow up???

What’s your vote for this space…..pool table or board games?

Decorating with the Dog- Tip #1

Ike is feeling a little left out on the ol’ blog. 

He thinks there is too much decorating talk and not enough dog talk.
He does make some important decorating decisions around the house.

In order to get a little more post time, he has decided to share with you some of his favorite decorating secrets.


Tip #1:  Tennis ball yellow makes a great accent color…especially on a properly smushed Ethan Allen couch cushion.
