Finally I have my space nearly done...we have yet to add a chandelier over the table, but it may be weeks, and I am so excited to have the basement usable and free of sheetrock dust that I had to share! This is my end of the family room, so we can all be in the same room, but the kids and DH have their end with the TV. It's overall a cabin decor, so I tried to not make this area stand out like a sore thumb, but wanted it to be functional as well. I will do most of my *work* at the counter and if I need to spread out more or have friends over, the table is a great space for this! Plus when we have company, I can put most of the stuff away and use the counter for a buffet and the table for games or kids dinner area.
Cabinets were a craigslist find for $100, the 12' counter was a Menards stock for $50 and the cabinets were placed to fit the counter, but then the left one was cut out in back to hide a poorly located pipe coming out of the wall! Table and chairs also from CL...$150 #2 more chairs have found a use elsewhere!#. Bookcases and baskets are from Ikea. Overall, a few great deals made this an awesome space!
Thanks for letting me share!!
Edited to add: Photos with floor and decor done are added to my gallery!
