OK, so I have the best wife in the world. We're working on re-doing our family room. My wife not only finally agreed to put the TV over the fireplace, but I could paint our "pop" wall (main focus wall) with a 917 Gulf theme. It would have to be somewhat tame, or I could go all out on our downstairs bathroom with the Gulf theme.
Here's what I did with our son's bedroom:
It's changed a bit since this pic and now has a silver metal bunk bed, a Martini clock I made along with a spare deck lid hanging on the wall.
Anyway, I'm looking for ideas and examples of Gulf inspired "home improvement" ideas. Garage pics are welcome as well. The wall is 9'x12' with a 4.5' high x 6' wide mantle in the middle and a 46" TV above that. The bathroom is small but I think may be approved for a "no holds barred" make-over.
