Basement to-do list

Project Basement is officially underway. The walls have been painted.... "cookie crumb" by Glidden. The giant wall chalkboard is painted too and looks pretty cool. Now we just have 5 million more steps til completion.

1. build shelving unit for tv, toys, cd's, and games on far wall
   
2. build frame for chalkboard and ledge for chalk and eraser
   
3. art for walls
4. make pillows for floor and couch
   
5. new shades for windows
6. replace fluorescent lights with can lights
7. built-in shelves and desk for computer area
8. figure out a furniture lay-out that doesn't annoy me
9. fill with toys and let the little guy go crazy!

Next step is a trip to the lumber yard for a load of MDF. I'm still trying to sort through all of the junk down here and pare it down to only the most necessary crap. It's amazing how much mis-matched furniture we have down here. Hopefully someone else will want some of it, because it can't all continue to live here!
