Basement Bar
by Mark
This is a bar my dad and I built back in the summer of 2005. We used old cabinet modules and restained the fronts. All the plumbing and electrical was also done by us. The mirror was an old one that used to be in the master bedroom. The counter tops were done by someone else. They are granite tiles bought for about $7 a square foot.

This bathroom used to be african themed. It had wallpaper that was starting to peel off so we decided to take it off and paint the walls and do this spray painting technique with the gold color.

I had trouble fitting all my guitars in my room so I decided to build a guitar rack to hold 6 guitars against a wall. Its a really simple design with a few 2x2's, 2x4's, 7/8'' wooden dowel, and a cork sheet all bought from Rona.

We took a boring fire place, and made it look fantastic. All it took was some marble, wood, and a little bit of know how.

Ceiling Fan

Hated pedestal fans because they take up too much space and cant afford to spend hundreds of dollars on AC bills. Decided to install a ceiling mounted fan. Easy to install, but does require electrical knowledge to do wiring safely. Has 3 different speeds, incorporates a light (room requires other sources as well due to low intensity), and includ...

Purchased this CD storage case from Ikea. It has perfect dimensions to display model cars 1/18 scale and under. Designed to be mounted against wall, but I decided to mount it within the wall to avoid an awkward extruding look.

Installed by professionals. Eliminates use of multiple lamps and ensures uniform lighting throughout the room. Cost includes 6 pot lights and labor. Study different pot lights and do not use low quality ones to save money. Cheap pot lights can overheat and cause a fire that can spread throughout the ceiling.

It turned out these were not available any more - so we decided to replace it (the dishwasher). This involved removing ceramic tiling and reconstructing the Island. Which in turn led to purchasing new cabnetry and so on and...
