He hired out a crew to hang and tape the drywall. He also hired Lowe’s to install the carpet.
And here it is! A Toy Room, 4 closets, a 3/4 bathroom, a Home Theater with refrigerator and a Storeroom. It has been done for 2 months now and We LOVE it. We have spent many hours as a family down there and have had some fun movie nights with friends.
Dress up Closet under the stairs.
***The toy storage bins are homemade. Derrick made these 4 years ago and they work great. He made a pvc pipe frame and bought the buckets at walmart. He removed the handles and they pop right into the frame squares nice and snug. I’ve had several people ask and post questions about this.***

I’m not sure how I found myself here, lol… but I had to comment. Your basement looks remarkably like mine! From the shape and design, to the cool shade of green (though mine is slightly lighter), the bar area, to the circular mirror in the bathroom. The only difference is that instead of a sweet movie theatre, I’ve got a daycare, LOL. It looks great 🙂 Anyway, I’m now following! Looking forward to reading more of your blog.

Can you send plans of the bucket storage rack via email? I love your ideas!
Hi! We left the storage rack behind when we moved 8 years ago. I’m so sorry that I don’t have the plans or ability to measure it out for you!
Do you remember what style shower that is. I have been trying for a year to remember it need a apart.
I’m sorry I don’t! We haven’t lived in that house for 9 years.
