mik3 1 Report post Posted December 29, 2004 I'll tell ya one thing, I have one of those corner unit desks now, and it's great. Uses just enough space and, IMO, looks good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fire0nIce228 1 Report post Posted December 29, 2004 I hung hockey sticks on my wall using these things that screw into the wall studs and make a "u". two of those, one at each end of the shaft and placed so that the sticks are at a nice looking angle and they stay on the wall perfectly.

mik3 1 Report post Posted December 29, 2004 Nah, I think the name for that is a Murphy bed. A loft is pretty much the top part of a bunk bed, so you can still put things or a dresser underneath. My friend has his desk under his loft. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My friend has his desk under his loft. Yup. Not recommended for tall people however. I'm only 5' 8" and I've hit my head a couple times while standing underneath the bed.

Actually I really need help with my room because I need to get it done within the next month and have no ideas. I remember on CB somebody had puck doorknobs; I'm looking for stuff like that.

2048 0 Report post Posted January 4, 2005 No, you tool. I meant awful, as in the on-ice product.Ever been in a room painted black or dark blue or anythign like that? It feels small as hell and just isn't right. Also, you'll get sick of it after a while. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eman24dx 0 Report post Posted January 4, 2005 I say have maybe 2-3 cool posters in nice frames, of something you like. Im my room I have that cool Kramer poster, I also have a Sopranos poster, and a Strange Brew I got for christmas will be going up when I get around to it. A decent frame runs 10-15 bucks at WalMart w/o the frame it just looks cheap. Also go to spencers for some great room ideas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nazer 0 Report post Posted January 4, 2005 In my room i have got some signs from old hockey shops that i have got either for free or as they got old or going out of business. I got them all for cheap! I'm sure your LHS gets display posters and stuff and you could ask to have/buy the older ones. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve 0 Report post Posted January 5, 2005 Go in a magazine and cut out some cool pics you like. I did that out of some surfing magazine and just taped them up on my wall. Looks pretty cool, and definately add some posters. I could post a picture of my room if you want. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
