Get The Most Out Of Your Billiards Room

I recently remodelled my home and decided to include a billiards room. I have always loved the idea of having one, especially so I wouldn't have to use the awful table at the bar down the street anymore. So, I was scouting the internet looking for pool tables when I thought--why not get all the accessories while I was at it?

So, I included billiards lighting and lamps into my search and wondered why I had originally intended to just put a pool table in a room. With nothing else. I started finding other really cool billiards accessories like college logo pub tables and bar stools. I mean, how great is that? I ended up purchasing a pub table, two swivel bar stools, a pool table, some matching college pool cues, and tons of billiards supplies like felt combs and chalk cones. I then went out and bought matching team color paint so I could have a fully themed sports game room. I was thrilled!

I had a group of my friends over and discovered that I didn't have enough places for everyone to sit. Everyone loved the college sports theme, so I decided to look for more college themed seating. I found the perfect match to my college team decor! I bought the college team logo billiards spectator chairs and boy were they nice. Finally, my billiards room was coming together and really looking and functioning beautifully.

One time I had a huge party and had tons of people hanging out, playing billiards--but everyone asked me where they could play cards. I had missed something in my previous shopping expeditions, so I went out hunting for card tables. I ended up finding matching college game table tops just like these: http://www.sports-collectibles-store.com/collegegametables.html that were set up so everyone could play poker comfortably. It was great and a big hit when my friends came over again.

Creating my billiards room was fun and the college team theme really worked out nicely. It is great to have a little relaxing haven in your own home to go to and just chill.
