Finishing our Basement!!!

Yay!!! I have been waiting for this project to get done and the time is here. It is going to take us a while to get this done but are hoping to be completely done by The end of June in time for the Boys birthday party!

We are thinking of doing a barn theme! Love love love! I asked on my facebook for any fun decorating ideas that anyone may have , so I am asking you on here as well. :) We are going to making our own sliding barn doors, to use as our doors into Tom's workshop and another for the laundry room. http://remodelista.com/posts/architectural-elements-sliding-barn-doors   Our doors will be a rougher look though.

We are also are also going to use an old wagon as a coffee table. Like this one  http://www.nebraskahistory.org/images/sites/mnh/toystory/wagon.jpg.

We are also going to be using wooden crates as end tables.

For the laundry room we are putting in a utility sink and I had the idea of using one of those large metal gardening buckets, kind of like this but wider http://www.flickr.com/photos/7545231@N03/5352513017/
we will coat it with a water proof seal and my husband will drill a hole for the drain. What what do you think?

So we are on our way, we have one wall framed out so far but there is only so much you can do with two kids around :)  Thanks for reading! :)
