Finally, after using the room for the grandchildren's playplace and for family gatherings as it was it was time to finish the space off.

We called a cabinet company and told them what I wanted in the room.

Below is what the outcome of my dreams and drawings came out as.  In my next post I will show some of the things I have created to decorate the space with.

When we built our home in 2007 this room was our large double garage. My husband decided, being the garage had sheet rocked, finished walls it was too nice for a garage.

So, we took out the overhead doors and put in windows and a fireplace, along with some wainscotting. We lived with it this way for several years, until we felt like we had the money to finish it as we wanted.

Our older grandchildren used the room for their sleep-overs when the cousins got together. It was their place to play games, use the computers and watch movies.

It's a new day and I am going to bring my blog back to life. It's been my plan since last fall and I am finally getting to it. Over the next few days I am going to post my latest project, in pictures. We recently finished our family room and I intend to show the process and the end results. I had so much fun doing it!
