Our newest upgrade in our house

Well, as many of you already know, I am married to a talented busybody. Not a busybody as in being nosy or gossipy, but a busybody as in He gets bored pretty easily especially if the sun is still up. So, what do I do..... keep his 'honeydew' (honey do) list full of fun things to do. And now that he has some more free time on his hands, he can start on something new. He is pretty good at fixing and building things so I don't mind trying to help him stay busy.


The entertainment center was his last major project (my idea, his design). And as a reward he got a new LCD Samsung TV. Here are a few pictures before during and after.

First stage. The walls in the living were/are a dull deep brown above the chair rail then below the chair rail they are a dark brown/black. We have beige carpet. So we chose white, big shelves and cabinets to cover one wall.

Of course, Jay designed the center to fit up to a 52 inch wide screen TV. We compromised with a 40 inch. =) The books on the top shelf came from Mom and Dad's living room.
Nice view of the guest bathroom....

Nice, huh?
