Finding Theater Seats That Remind Me Of My Youth Was Not That Hard

 

As a child I loved going to the movies. It was not just the movie or the popcorn that created an atmosphere for me it was also the decor, like the theater seats in rows and the red drapes that parted when the movie started.

 

Now that I have gotten older I have noticed that many of the new movie houses have changed. They no longer have drapes covering the screen and the whole building does not smell of fresh popcorn like it did when I was a kid.

 

If I wanted to recreate that feel I realized that I was going to have to do it in my own home. With all of the available options in home theater décor I learned that designing my own home theater was not going to be that hard.

 

Obviously I started with my projector and all the other things that come with it, like the screen and sound system. Once I got all those things it was time to make the room feel like the movie houses of my youth.

 

The next thing I got was traditional theater seats; you know, the ones that fold up when someone is not sitting in them. This time I can ensure that there is no gum stuck to the bottom of them and they are not stained with gallons of soda that were spilled on them.

 

The one thing that really ties the room together though is the art work I got. I bought a special frame with spot lights to display the movie poster for the movies I enjoyed as a kid. I also got several lobby cards to put in to corners of the room.

 

I thought I was done until I found a vintage looking popcorn machine. I love that I can sit back and enjoy some of my favorite movies and if I close my eye it feels just like it did when I was young.
