We are in the process of finishing our basement. This is our main room that is nearly finished. We still need to decide what to use for the ceiling.

Thanks for the positive comments! We are loving it so far. We special ordered the corrugated metal panels from a building supply store. They were 3ft by 12 ft if I remember correctly so we had to cut them to length with tin snips. The last piece we had to cut to fit both in length and width so we used a sawzall with metal blade for the width. Then we attached it with small washers and screws. Good luck!

Tuscan Inspired Wine Cellar, After a visit to Tuscany my husband and I found the inspiration we needed to finish a lonely spot in our basement. After a lot of work and time I am glad to say that we finished. Now I can sit back, sip wine and pretend I'm in Italy ( away from the husband and kids, hehe)! I hope you enjoy, Basements Design
