Billiards is a classic game that has been played in some form or another for centuries. It’s a game for people of all ages, and today is being played in pool halls across the country. The popular trend however, is for people to get out of the pool halls in exchange for playing billiards in their own homes! This dream can become a reality for you as well, once you design your own billiard room.

Spacing and Billiard Table Selection

The first step in designing your billiard room is figuring out how much space you’ll need. An adult or regulation size pool table is 9 feet long, and a smaller, child’s table will be about 7 feet long. Tables are also made in all sizes in between, so if space is an issue for you, you should be able to find one around 8 feet. You should also consider how much room the shooter will need. A good idea is to give an adult shooter 4-6 feet of space around the table, and 3-5 feet for children. Once you have an idea of the size of your billiard table, you can pick one out. If you plan on keeping your table for a long time, the best idea is to buy one with a solid wood frame, and solid wood sub-rails. You should also take note of the “live gum rubber” percentage of the rail cushion. A higher percentage is equivalent to better quality.

Decorating

The next step in designing your room is decorating. A popular first step in decorating is billiard lamps. Billiard lamps come in all shapes and colors, so you shouldn’t have a problem finding one that is suitable to your tastes, and the color scheme of your billiard room. Billiard lamps are fairly easy to install yourself, but you may need some small tools such as a screwdriver or pliers. An old-fashioned juke box is a popular alternative to a big stereo system; however, the popular trend is for music to be played in the form of mp3s. A stereo with mp3 capabilities is probably a good investment, if music in your billiard room is important to you. Surround sound speakers are another popular choice for billiard rooms, as they aren’t too expensive and can be installed simply with the use of an instruction manual. Popular wall hangings for billiard rooms can be found at any home decorating store and at online billiards stores. You will also need a place to put your pool cues when they are not in use. Wall-hanging cue racks are popular in billiard rooms, as are cue racks that sit on the floor.

Once your room is finished, you will have the ideal spot for entertaining friends and family for many years to come. As an added bonus, a game or billiard room is a sought after feature that many potential home buyers look for – which makes your billiard room a wise investment if you decide to put your home on the market later on.

Well I couldn’t bring up your photos, but I do have some ideas. Hopefully I can describe them so you can understand! I’m hoping my instructions can be visual is what I mean.

For walls……
You can try to find old clothes racks, the metal ones with wheels on them, and cover with inexpensive cloth. Makes great dividers. Or…..you can get 1×4′s, dowls (little round sticks), and small hinges, drill holes to put the dowls in horizontally to the vertical 1×4′s, and then hang a cheap piece of fabric, sarong, on it weaving it in and out of the dowels. I hope that made sense! It would come out looking like those expensive room dividers. You can also do this with PVC pipes. For the exposed beams/rafters that you don’t want to look at, you can build a make-shift like canopy out of PVC pipes and material. Go on some internet sites like diynetwork.com or hgtv.com. You can do a search for things like this. Also, another great site where this lady has fantastic cheap ideas…..www.couragetocreate.com. I can’t wait to try her painted linoleum idea!! Good luck. Hope this helps!
