It’s bright and I love it!

I am so close to being finished with my game room. We have been working on it for a couple of weeks, adding paint, wainscoting, desks, game tables…you name it. Except for the trim and a few touches the room is finally done. Here is the before…dull and boring. Just a blank space.

Here it is now…bright and full of color!

I wanted big pops of color in this room so I added a lot of turquoise, reds, and bright greens. It is a game room, so we wanted to make it fun.

We have a place to watch TV, do homework, and have fun playing games.

I found this table at the DI for 25 bucks. We sanded the top and stained it a different color, and I painted the legs a nice gray. I had the stain and paint in the garage, so this table was literally a 25 buck purchase.

I am so excited how this room turned out. It was a lot of hard work, but defiantly worth doing. We added personality to the walls by adding the wainscoting, and paint. We re used the couch, rocker and settee. I found the ottoman at Down East Home, and painted an existing table I had bright green.  I love re using what I have in my home to make the room affordable and give things I already have new life.  Just by adding new pillows my couch had a completely different look to it.  I love color and it was fun to just play with it in this room to make it a bright and fun place for the whole family to enjoy.

I'm Erin, a busy mom of three, chauffeur, cook, housekeeper, and wanna be decorator. I love old movies, good books, and a daily trip to Lowes. We have recently bought a new home...one we are fixing up and changing everything. This blog is to record our renovating journey. This is not the first house we have done. Actually, it is our third. My husband and I love a project. Any project. We both love working on our home, have the same taste, (which is great), and love working and re purposing things on our budget. We can show you how to put together a high end and creative look without breaking the bank. Taking something old and recreating it into something new and exciting for any room is my passion. Hope you enjoy this decorating journey with us!
