GUEST HOUSE/GAME ROOM DECORATED

This huge guest house/game room was completely decorated for the enjoyment of family and friends.  The goals was for a comfortable and kid-friendly environment.  This was a new construction project that included our consultation/selection of paint color, tile, cabinets and fixtures.

We purchased decorative items for this project over a six month period while it was being built, using the structure's building plans.  With a budget of $12,000.00, we actually spent $10,927.00 on furnishings, decorative items and new felt/set up of the pool table.  The home was ready for use when construction was completed!

Most of the furnishings and decorative items were purchased second-hand.  The entertainment system items (TV, stereo, speakers, DVD player) and kitchen cabinets, fixtures and appliances were excluded from our budget.

This is an awesome guest house/game room that is enjoyed all the time!
