Old Man Cave, Now Office

With moving Clint's Man Cave to the basement, I was able to take back my office!  There was one dark, problem though....

The paint.  Ok, maybe this picture is pushing it.  Do not get me wrong, I loved the color he had originally picked out, but I was sick of having to turn lights on during the day to see in there.  For a few years now, I was begging Clint to let me change the color, to even just a few shades lighter.  He had denied me every time.  I think he liked the dark cave-like feel.

I even tried adding white curtains and furniture to brighten it up.  Nothing worked.

When we decided to move his man cave to the basement to give him more space, I saw my chance.  I started to think how this room would be used over the next 5 years.  Office/Guest Room/possible kids room.  With that said, I had to pick a neutral color that went with what I had.  Thanks to a lovely gift card to Home Depot from a couple hard working volunteers at my work, I was able to nab a can of paint.

I decided on a soft yellow color.  Due to the dark color, I choose the Behr paint with primer.  After two coats, you could hardly tell the room was a dark cave before.

For now, the room will serve as our office.  Color has surely given the room the light it needed!

Somewhere in this picture, a small kitty named Dora is hiding. 

See that rocker there?  Come back Friday for details.
