Basement Project: Theater 85% complete!

Right as soon as we thought we could take a little breather from the Thanksgiving madness, we realized that we had yet another deadline to beat - the rest of the carpet installation. So we've been busy getting the oak doors ready and all the trim and baseboards and doors painted (which are hiding in this picture.) It's good that we had such a quick deadline, though, so we wouldn't draw out the remainder of the basement for another year or so. If you notice the lovely sage green wall in the back, that's going to be my craft room! Yay! Maybe now I'll craft!

And opening the doors, VOILA! The beautiful Theater in all its purple glory. (This is the view coming down the stairs, by the way.) This shot is so you can see how awesomely coordinated the paint colors are. :) Rex is probably shaking his head and rolling his eyes right about now...

And here are the wonder seats, which can fit 8 comfortably, plus two beanbags stored behind the couches. Still fiddling with the curtains, but I think I like this pair much better than the last. I'm going for an eggplant, brown, and silver look. Maybe with bright yellow accents in future wall hangings or pillows... just a thought... Mo, let me know if you think that idea is garbage. Honestly. :)

And here's the mighty 110" screen and the beautiful fireplace which will soon have grey stonework around it. I am looking forward to that addition!

Oops, there's the vacuum. But this is how it looks from the (almost) center back of the room.

And I absolutely LOVE how the vaulted ceiling with cove lighting turned out! I tell ya what, that Rex is amazing in that he designed this whole basement. What a stud!
