Theater Renovations are under way....Finally

This is Chris........and this post is probably not gonna apply to or interest the female gender.......

I know Brian can relate. :)

After living here for a year now (seems unreal), I am FINALLY making some progress on my home theater room. I got new curtains and a new rug last week. Soon I will be painting the room a blue scheme and applying a brown/tan fabric to the ceiling to reduce light glare from the screen and projector. I was gonna paint the ceiling too but after consulting Jessi's Dad who is a homebuilder it turns out the popcorn texture ceiling would be a big pain in the a** to paint. I found out through online research at one of Jessi's favorite forums(hahaha) that you can buy cheap fabric material to cut and place over the popcorn ceiling flush. I'm searching for new speakers as well, which is turning out to be quite the chore. I was gonna go with in-wall speakers but now it looks like I'm gonna be using in-ceilings. Should make for a nice clean look to the room with no visible speakers or cables. I'm also trying to acquire a few movie posters for the walls that I have my eye on but no luck yet. So far only one visitor has seen the added rug and curtains. We had one of our friends, Ashley who works with Jessi at the hospital, over for a movie night last week and she loved the new look. Here are some pics of the rug and curtains. Almost forgot, I also added awhile back a Theatre sign on the wall before you walk into the room, here is a pic of it as well.
