We had a low ceiling basement in our last house and had it dug out a few feet - it was a big project but made such a huge difference!

We have 6 1/2 foot ceilings in our basement (with some lower pipes we're getting rid of, hopefully) so I'm just trying to imagine our possibilities! :)Liz @ iheartvegetableshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00604933181933083588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38356705.post-3703521449252944742014-01-22T18:57:00.330-05:002014-01-22T18:57:00.330-05:00Uh oh....

I first saw it on Rugs USA but an eagle eye reader suggested I check out the same rug at Overstock which had it $100 cheaper. I just checked today and RugsUSA has it $100 cheaper than Overstock. So it pays to price compare.<br /><br />Other source info can be found here: http://www.brooklynlimestone.com/2014/01/man-room-sources.html#.Ut_z0WQo6Wg<br />Mrs. Limestonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06159249562273770481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38356705.post-75560635785126168762014-01-22T11:42:01.391-05:002014-01-22T11:42:01.391-05:00Thanks Julia.

With as many people as we have, I don't think a bump in will be likely (I dont even bump into people I know!).<br /><br />We purchased a sectional from Jennifer Convertibles primarily because their delivery service would take the couch apart so it could be brought into the tight squeeze hallway door that leads to our basement. As a result, our options were pretty limited. If I had more options, I would have gotten something a little more structured (I dont like the loose pillows on the back). That said, its held up perfectly fine. The material is a microfiber that seems to attract plenty of cat hair but is easy to clean. And the price was reasonable. So overall I would give it a good review but would suggest a couch with more structured back cushions since I imagine those would get ruined fast with 2 boys. Hope that helps!Mrs. Limestonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06159249562273770481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38356705.post-66267096323801374572014-01-22T11:38:28.722-05:002014-01-22T11:38:28.722-05:00Source post is up: http://www.brooklynlimestone.co...Source post is up: http://www.brooklynlimestone.com/2014/01/man-room-sources.htmlMrs. Limestonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06159249562273770481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38356705.post-67271107622827435392014-01-22T11:36:32.175-05:002014-01-22T11:36:32.175-05:00Would love to hear more about the rug and the coff...Would love to hear more about the rug and the coffee table!

I keep imagining we will bump into each other next time I am in NYC (it will be in March by the way) and we will be instant best friends. :) On a less stalkerish side note, I am in the market for a good sectional. What is your opinion on the quality of yours? Keep in mind I have a 4.5 and almost 2 year old little boy so it will take A LOT of abuse!Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09975636014908027006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38356705.post-87179613250024822272014-01-22T05:19:41.346-05:002014-01-22T05:19:41.346-05:00Well, that is a good reason to lend a helping, fem...Well, that is a good reason to lend a helping, female, hand then. :)PinkPanthresshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08702242762251577851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38356705.post-13458084281562670622014-01-22T00:55:40.199-05:002014-01-22T00:55:40.199-05:00Gorgeous space!
