jboypacman Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 Ok gang me and the wife live in a small 3 bedroom ranch style house and we currently doing some repainting inside and are going to move our rooms around so am going to have a "new space" to hook up my TV and play games at. Picked the paints out and i have a old stand for my TV but what i need is good ideals on cheap ways to store/display my games and even cheaper ideals for furniture. Just thought i would pick your guys brains on this so any ideals about this would be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+jsmith73 Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 Is there an Ikea near you? They've got some pretty cool chairs, and shelves... How do you feel about doing your own re-upholstery ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do indeed have a Ikea near us and my wife can do a little bit of re-upholstery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+jsmith73 Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 Ikea's pretty inexpensive. They have lots of fun stuff... They're casegoods (shelves, etc) are pretty sturdy. BUT! IMHO finding furniture at a thrift store/flea market/garage sale is more fun. You can re-upholster the chairs in your own fabric choice! That way your game room is really custom! Involving your better half is never a bad idea! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
