Craft room designs

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 billiard 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.
