    New wife insisted on hiring an Interior Decorator to make my house "less masculine" (ugggh).

    To my delight the Decorator INSISTED
    we move my 8 pins out of the back cave and integrate them throughout the basement Rec Room.

    Her explanation was that "These Pinball Machines are WORKS OF ART!"

    Quoted from frolic:

    So how does the decorator feel about "more art" now that there's more space?

    Exactly what immediately came to mind! I thought rather than asking the Decorator (so damn expensive) I'd just buy a couple more pieces of "art."

    Quoted from Phat_Jay:

    Shoulda married the decorator....

    Of of the sad words of tongue and pen............

    Quoted from chas10e:

    The decorator should put up a marketplace ad here.
    before & after pics would be cool

    Yes she should!

    I'm at work but can post some pics when I get home

    Btw, new wife hasn't seen the new "art display" in the basement as she's been focused upstairs. Perhaps I can catch her reaction on my cell and post too!

    Quoted from Monk:

    In front of a door, that’s interesting. I wonder what other ideas she had.

    Door to furnace--put in glass door with strobe--provides interesting backdrop

    Quoted from epthegeek:

    WTF is the arm chair doing in front of the pin?

    It isn't--just the camera angle

    Oh some sit on it while they play
    Bar stool from Grandin Road

    Hahaha--the decorator has been focused on the upper two floors--she just had my son and I move the pins throughout the lower level as a starting point. I am actually responsible for the crazy "retro futuristic" decor which is there now. The two glass doors lead to nowhere (furnace room, office closet). I swapped out wood doors and put in the glass ones The strobe lights behind the glass doors provide a cool ambiance--tie in with AFM, DI, ST, Star Jet, etc. I'll post pics of the lovely wife tonite--she's thrilled with what the decorator has done upstairs so maybe she'll "flow" with the new pinball configuration.
