TA-DA!

Well…. what do you think? We finally have our entertainment center finished. We have been prepping, setting up, putting together, rearranging, moving, etc., to get this done. It was Zenon’s and my Christmas present to each other.

During a quick trip to UT last fall, I went to IKEA with my mom and aunt. My aunt (thanks Tayva) gave me a great idea to use office furniture instead of regular entertainment furniture. It has a ton of storage and looks great. After going over everything with Zenon, we went back to IKEA and got everything we needed. We then got our surround sound system wired and ready to go.

Friday night, after work, we went to work painting (2:00 a.m.) I must admit I fell asleep around 12:00 a.m. Anyway, Saturday was spent putting all of the furniture together from IKEA. Sunday was spent hanging the cabinets to the wall and putting the hardware on the doors and hanging the doors to the cabinets. Sheesh!

I’m so glad it’s done. We would have like to have done a little bit more (visually) to the area but we are out of money. We will just have to enjoy our new area and save a bit more by watching movies at home. Maybe in a few months……or years….
