I have been planning on decorating a room in our basement since we moved in to our house, 7 years ago. I am also starting a Youtube channel, which will mainly be recorded in the lounge. I finally took a couple of substantial steps toward that end, thought I'd show you gentlemen the result. It is a combined remote work office and lounge, with mostly Chippendale and Chesterfield furniture. It feels great! I am finally very close to starting to produce content and share my ideas on security, readiness and how to be prepared not just for emergencies, but to seize any opportunity. The theme of the lounge is "a Gentleman's lounge in 2059". Classically inspired but with futuristic touches. What is left: - Ceiling light above the glass table - brass, amber, art deco, almost architectural - Linen curtains between wall and velvet curtains for that hotel feeling - LED lighting in two cabinets - Full-body mirror with gold frame - Small side table between the wingbacks, brass, architectural - Two large potted Aracea Palms trees - Wooden blinds - Place some decoration inside the glass and metal coffee table. - A Samsung The Frame on the wall behind the sofa that will show art, or movies when so inclined. Please tell me what you think and if you have any suggestions on how to improve it.

Hey guys....it's been a minute since I came on here, but I wanted to show one of my current projects. A couple of months ago I had to put down my 14+ year old pitbull. It was not easy, but it was definitely time for her. Anything longer would have just been extending her misery. Everything was getting difficult for her, and the past few weeks she was eating only sporadically. I put some much into her that I even had a dedicated bedroom for her to use as a bathroom. I put down a large piece of leftover vinyl flooring over the ratty berber carpeting that was already in that room when I bought the house. I had been using the room for storage, and even painted some of my project toolboxes and whatnot in there. I told my girlfriend that when Spooky (my dog) was gone, we'd turn that room into a walk in closet. We did all of the work ourselves, which included ripping out vinyl and old berber carpeting, then using Nature's Miracle on the particle board subfloor where urine had soaked through. Let me tell you, that stuff is AMAZING! Once the subfloor was treated with that and it dried completely, I put 2 coats of Zinsser BIN shellac primer on the subfloor, then we bought and installed vinyl plank flooring. The original owners just had 1x4 material as molding along the floor. I used a bit in my router table to give that a nice top edge and not look so blocky. I also patched all the walls and painted them. The original owner had created this room by encroaching on the original garage, then built a full 2 car garage onto the existing garage. Kind of wonky but it worked. They didn't however have any ceiling mounted lighting, choosing rather to mount some wall sconces on the one wall which were inadequate and pretty redneck to me. I re-routed those wires up into the attic and then drilled holes into the plasterboard ceiling for ceiling mounted lights. To explain the ceiling situation.....there is a drop ceiling they installed, that's about 2" below what used to be the old garage platerboard ceiling. The drop ceiling is only 6'8" tall, and because of the limited height and limited options, I went with some very slim LED panel lights that I managed to wrestle into the drop ceiling grid (that was not a super fun part of the job). The lights are adjustable for light color (3.5k, 4k, or 5k) and have 3 different lumes settings. That was the basic shell of the room.
