We moved in to a new house and I finally have a room/office to myself.

I still plan to put in a chair height Duke border and paint the bottom of the room Duke Blue.

This framed towel was my grandfather's golf towel. He passed away about 7-8 years ago. He had a son who graduated from Duke.

And my pride and joy. The most beautiful thing I have ever seen next to my wife and daughter. For my 30th birthday my brother called Coach Wojo and got me last year's signed team poster. He then paid to have it custom framed. The plaque on the bottom says DUKE BLUE DEVILS - 2008-2009 - ACC CHAMPIONS

Very cool! I hope you've left room for additions for more "hardware"! Do you have any floor plaques? You can get them here if not http://www.shopdukestores.duke.edu/ePOS/this_category=22&store=106&form=shared3/gm/main.html&design=106

I filled the empty space with some personal pictures and such that will eventually be replaced by more Duke items :) I really do want a piece of floor.

I just have a 27 inch old tube TV in there now that I'd like to eventually replace with a 32 inch HD for when I get booted from the big screen because the wife has to watch Gossip Girl!

Very chic!
But, you need some more Duke stuff. How about a Duke flag on the wall?

I'm hoping Santa brings me a Duke grill cover or maybe a Duke air conditioner sleeve for Christmas.

I definitely do. I never collected much in the past because I had no where to put it.

I am hoping for some Duke curtains for Christmas myself!

Go to the Fatheads website and look at the Duke logo and huge Blue Devil....they are easy to install and would look great on the wall without any painting....

Good idea!

I actually wanted to install a piece of plexi glass in the corner above the desk and put a giant Duke logo on it.

I've been working on mine for 2 years, slowly creating the perfect atmosphere. I overspent on the paint scheme and maple flooring which has put the project on hold.

I drove 6 hours one way to Charlotte to have Battier sign a Duke jersey, got there three hours before game time and security wouldn't let me in the arena. By the time the doors opened he was already back in the locker room.

A sad 6 hour ride home.

I'd throw a picture in but lack some skills to clip them here.
