Title: Preparing my trophy room
Post by: rosscrazyelk on February 24, 2014, 04:35:04 PM: I am starting the plans on my trophy room. I have seen some nice ones and I am going to steal ideas from them and add some of my own.
Does anyone know where one can get reclaimed timber?
Also any place that sells old barn wood? or know someone who is giving some away?
Thanks

It really doesn't look cheesy at all, I'm pretty sure that's partially because my wife doubles as "perfect-wallpaper-putter-onner-chick", it's flawlessly done.
