But first, let me remind you what the Man Cave looked like when we first moved in:
Yes, it was in need of a makeover. It looked more like a dorm room with the futon, sparse furnishings and moving day boxes than a man-worthy Man Cave. Actually, the room functioned more like a make-shift storage unit and was never used. Very sad.
Project List:
No-sew curtains made from sheets
Asymmetrical wall arrangement
Graphic and modern art
Reupholstered ottoman
Storage boxes, painted to match
Pillows made from sheets - using my no-sew method
Edit - the hubby helped spray paint the bike frame. He wanted me to make sure that I said that...
Man Cave Makeover Cost Breakdown:
Curtains $8
Pillows $5
Rug $15
Artwork $10.69
Asym. Art $13
Sofa $149
Accessories $15
TOTAL $215.69
Yes! A total room makeover for 215 bucks! Not too bad, if I say so myself. And, if you take out the sofa (since we had planned on upgrading the futon anyways), it totals $66.69. Wow!

Okay, Nene, this is great! Can't wait to see it in person.
Oh yes! I'm gonna love following your journey. It always seems like I want to do something, but I dont know where to begin. I get into decorating ruts.

i love when rooms finally come together!! this looks amazing :)
Looks great! I'm impressed that he let you decorate yourself! My hubby would not let me do anything without his permission in his man cave : ) But he does have the black and gray like yours!
Thanks for the inspiration! I made a couple of the "graphic modern art" pictures this weekend, but I used a green color, turned out gorgeous!
Thankfulness to my father who told me on the topic of this blog, this webpage is in fact amazing.
