All of us need a place where we can just be ourselves and shut away the rest of the world. If you have a spare room in your house, why not consider turning it into your own private den? Most guys love to have their own getaway place, simply to chill out or catch up with life.
A den should be an extension of your personality and shouldn't be about showing it off to other people. Close ones should see shades and splashes of you and your likes in your den. So where do you start?
Dressing Up the Room
- First visualize how you want the room to look. If you already know what kind of furniture you want to have, then deciding the color of your walls as well as other unique wall decorating ideas will be a lot easier. A guy's room should be a balanced blend of both personality and masculinity. Painting each wall in different shades that merge well together is a good way to give the room a bright bold look.
- Walls with wooden panels and textured floors to match look great as well, and if you prefer carpets, then match the carpet shade to the wall paint. If your furniture is dark in color then it's preferable to have light shades on the wall or the room will look too flashy.
- The furniture you place in the room depends on how you to plan to use the room. A computer table, a chair and a bookcase are ideal for creating a study. A few bean bags, comfortable sofas, a small coffee table and a couple of shelves or cabinets will complete the room. That way, you won't be short on storage space, and entertaining friends won't be a problem
- Empty walls make a room look bare so come up with some original and interesting wall decorating ideas. For example, consider putting up a few home décor wall accessories such as metal wall hangings, paintings or even a wine rack.
- Ideally, the lighting in the room should be neither too dim nor too bright. Simple wall sconces will do the trick. Lamps can enhance the look of a place too. Lava lamps, UFO lamps, lamps with patterns and themed wallpaper lamps with a beach or sports theme will look just as great.
Adding your Personal Touch
Now comes the fun part! After the basic interior is done, its time to decide on the theme.
- If you love golf, why not opt for wall murals with gold course patterns on them, and a matching green carpet on the floor? A few trophies, books on golf, framed posters of golf players, a display of your clubs on the wall, and even upholstery in a golf design, will complete the look.
- If sailing is your passion, how about a nautical theme for the room? You could opt for light blue wallpaper or use blue green, white or deep blue wall paint for a vibrant look. Framed pictures of the sea or a world political map on the wall, a painted rug in a sailboat shape, and light sheer drapes, will give the impression that you are at sea. Pillows, cushions and lamps can have nautical themes as well. Low furniture, a bench placed under a window and even a fish tank will complete the theme.
- For a sportier look, opt for a football themed room. You could dress the room up in the colors of your favorite team, and display various memorabilia of your team as well. Choose neutral colored wall paint or put up wallpaper featuring the logo of your team on one wall. Clocks, plaques, posters, canvases and even wall sconces featuring individual players or the team can brighten up the room. Add a creative touch with cushions that resemble a football, or upholstery with black and white patterns, and rugs that are cut out in the shape of a football.
- Add more personal touches to your room, if you feel a theme could limit your creativity. How about putting up movie posters, framed certificates, a few photo frames and a painting or two on the walls? Figures of movie characters, assembled kit cars and souvenirs from trips will look great on wall shelves, your table or on a book shelf.
If you have a favorite sport, here are some additional wall decorating ideas:
- Display your base ball kit, hang your favourite racquet on the wall, keep your pair of skates in a corner of the room or hang a basket ball hoop on an empty wall.
- Also consider keeping a small liquor cabinet and a mini fridge if you plan to entertain your buddies and maybe some business associates.
So now that your private den is all set, you're ready to kick back and spend some quality time with just yourself as well as having a cozy spot to invite your buddies for a few pops and some friendly fun guy chit chat and lots of laughter.

2008 Tennis Highlights
The lion’s share of tennis highlights in 2008 come from the racquets of the ATP giants, with newbie, Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, elevating tennis to Tinsel Town-type entertainment, and Nadal and Federer fighting one grand slam battle after another for the number one spot in world tennis.
The 2008 season began with a scintillating and searing display by a relatively unknown unseeded player for the opening grand slam in Melbourne. Jo-Wilfried Tsonga gutted the legions of British tennis fans and cost the bookmaker’s a heap in cash when he flayed Andy Murray in the opening round.
But that was not the end of the Muhammad Ali lookalike’s climb to stardom, as the Frenchman set the scoreboards sizzling when he went on to destroy the hopes and dreams of some of the most accomplished tennis players on the planet, including Guillermo Garcia Lopez, Richard Gasquet and Mikhail Youzhny.
The stuff dreams are made of
Tsonga’s performance against the incumbent number two in world tennis, Rafael Nadal, was the stuff dreams are made of and the effervescent crowd pleaser effectively beat the King of Clay on all fronts – in skill, strength and speed (not to mention popularity) - as the concise statistics of the sports information system revealed.
His über-powerful serves, pinpoint volleys and aggressive yet precise backline play had the 3D ball tracking mechanism of the hawk eye working overtime, with Nadal questioning its accuracy with hope rather than conviction.
Tsonga views himself as the ultimate entertainer and, while the crowd feeds off his sublime skills, he too is motivated by the energy and hype of the supporters. In his final clash against Novak Djokovic, where his dreams of a grand slam victory were left in tatters, he often incited the crowd by playing to the video walls surrounding the courts...and to great effect.
Sadly, Tsonga was unable to continue his formidable dash to the top end of the ATP ranking as a knee injury kept him sidelined for the majority of the season.
The clash of the Titans
One match that will go down in the annals of tennis folklore is the clash of the Titans – the Roger Federer/ Rafael Nadal battle for grass-court supremacy.
Federer, who will no doubt be remembered as one of the most dominant tennis players of all time and the most graceful, had a unpleasant start to the 2008 season – he was badly affected by glandular fever, an illness that arguably cost him the number one spot.
He fared reasonably well at the Australian Open, losing to eventual champion, Novak Djokovic, but flippantly cast the loss aside and marched triumphantly on to the grass-courts of Wimbledon, a territory that had been annexed by the Swiss Master as his own private stamping ground.
The match was epic, and the event management system was put under one of its most telling tests with rain, gloom and precision ball placing all affecting the end result.
For five years, Federer had beaten all contenders for the kudos of the All England Club and he was on a confident strut to a 6th consecutive title. Sadly, it was not to be –after 4 nail-biting hours and 48 bone-crunching minutes of exhaustive yet sublime competitive tennis, his younger arch rival, Rafael Nadal, walked away with the crown; a defeat that no doubt must have sliced Federer’s heart in two.
