make over my dining room but i'm notgoing to keep it a dining room i'm gonna make it into a completely differentspace i'm gonna change up its function i'm gonna make it a music / media roomso this is probably a question you guys are asking why are you doing this numberone we have a kitchen table and a dining table so that's like 10 chairs diningchairs for p&i and we just never use a dining table it's just doesn't get usednumber two we don't do fancy dinners that often like once or twice a year andit ends up collecting dust the dining table and it just collects stuff in andwe're kind of sick of it number three is that we have this really cool stereosystem set up in that space and we have
a lot of records that we like to listento but the dining table is like kind of in the way takes up a lot of space wehave to get around it squeezed by and it's just it doesn't function rightnumber four is there's no rule that says we have to have a dining table like justbecause of the person before us put a date dining table in this house doesn'tmean we have to choose nobody tells me what to do all right so what do we wantwhat do i want to achieve what are they kind of make goals forthis new music / media lounge i want it to be comfy so instead of dining tableand chairs i think i want to get some sort of like comfy lounge chairs or likea comfy sofa or like loveseat i'm not
really sure when i see it i'll know butit has to be comfy number two i want to display some records we have a lot ofrecords and storage but i want to put a lot of our favorite ones out on displayand i want it to be easy to be able to play record number three we have thisreally cool wall unit that i definitely want to keep it just needs to be filledwith you know a lot of pretty stuff number four is soft lighting i want tomake sure there's a lot of soft lighting in the space because it's supposed to berelaxing we have an overhead light that i really love but it just it's only likeon one setting number five my goal for the space isto finish the door we have this sliding
slider door that we just put in thissummer as like a project for our house we added on a deck and we put up a newslider in but we haven't quite finished the inside molding of the slider so it'sa bit of an eyesore right now so this is gonna actually force me to finish it andget it done last but not least here's here's a partthat's important for this challenge you have to do is follow three simple rulesone this challenge is gonna be 31 days long my last challenge my bedroommakeover was was 60 days long and that for me i felt was just too long too i'mgiving myself a budget of $200 i'm gonna give myself a little bit more cushionthan last time to start in 3 if i sell
