The Man Cave
Thursday, October 2nd, 2008 Oct 2nd, 2008 leave a response

Here is Hubby’s new media room. I was a bit wary about black on the ceiling. Okay, seriously wary. But he insisted that a theater needed a dark ceiling to absorb light (this is also why the screen wall is black). And then of course there was the complimentary color because no way is the whole room going to be black.

Enter Eddie from Sherwin Williams, who definitely saved the day with his recommendation of “Red Bay.”

I love it. I think it turned out wonderfully. We still have decorating to do, and there’s a pool table and bar in the future, but watching television in here is awesome. The sound is amazing, the colors really make it seem like a theater, and the popcorn machine is fun.

So, after 22 years of moving around in the military, the man finally has his cave. He deserves it. :) But, uh, honey, can I have the girls over for a chick flick…?

    I’ve got a few good ones, meself! I’d love a girl’s night. We could turn pirate and consume lots of rum while watching POTC! Ah, Johnny on the tremendously large screen. (sigh) Bats lashes…

    Kathy, you should seriously see POTC on this screen! It's awesome!! But hubby will allow NO POTO. It's been there once, and he's not sure the screen has recovered. *g*

    I say we need Pirates & Romancing the Stone for sure. Must watch RTS on the big screen! Oh, and P&P.

    Ok Ladies, ok… :-) I don’t have a problem with “chick flick” night, but I insist you bring me food (lol).

    The reason I always wanted a theater room is so we can have our friends over for some fun.
