Default Man caves/Trophy room

Hey there guys we just closed on a new home and I have a new bonus room that I am turning into a "man cave" / trophy room and I have seen some great ones on here. I was hoping that some of you could post or repost some pictures of your rooms. I am looking for some ideas on colours and stuff like that. Thanks
Ty

I don't have pictures but I used old barn wood for paneling and it came out very rustic and cool. I aways liked barnwood and if you can get a small franklin or some type of wood stove to accent it. Have fun.

"colours and stuff"? IT'S A MAN CAVE!!!!!!!!

The only acceptable wall covering for a man cave is white paint or wood panelling. Period. Sheesh. You were looking for ecru in eggshell latex????? Oh yeah, and put up a picture of Don Cherry somewhere conspicuous. LOL

Anyway, good luck with it!

I've got a huge Gonza hood scoop from a racer that would look great in a man-cave.
I need the room on my bench for reloading soon.

Actually.....the white is called 'Whispering Cloud' in eggshell, of course, and the dark grey is 'Molding Clay Slate' in Matte......

Two of my brothers have pretty kick-***** trophy rooms, hopefully they will post too....

A big trophy room has been a dream for my brothers and i since i can remember....They are a lot of fun, because there is no end to the changes you can make, they are always a work in progress, especially after every pull of the trigger. It always helps having a father that is a taxidermist!!

So... $2/sq ft flooring. Check
$1 / sq ft paint. Check
$5-10 / sq ft wood paneling. Check
$7500 cast iron stove. Check
$18000 for old roof hanging on wall. Check
$100000 in taxidermy. Check
But I'm still missing something. Shoot that's right, no more wife.... Darn I knew I forgot something.
