Wall unit makeover, and my first Giveaway! Woooo!

I brought this baby a few months ago, and she has been taking up room/collecting dust in the garage ever since.


60's Gold Diamond patterned doors? No thanks!
So I removed the doors, hardware, puttied, sanded, primed, and painted her in Dulux Grey pail.
Then I used a $2.06 mistint tub of turquoise paint I scored, to add some extra color to the back ground, and here she is:


I replaced the old handles with cute lil silver new ones.

I kinda fell out of love with her last night, but after I threw in some decorations this afternoon, I am defiantly back, head over heals in love with her.
This is only some decorations I very quickly threw together, I still got some work to do:
What do you think?
Any chance you spotted the yellow Morrissey Sunglasses in there?
Here is a better close up:
Well, they are my give away! As part of the sunnie days promo, I was sent some AWESOME Banana and berry Nectar juice (yummooooo btw!) and two pairs of Morrissey sunglasses! One for me, and one for one of my readers!

What would you do? (WWWD?) aka HEEELP!

Remember my beautiful, tranquil vision I had for our new room? Well, the floor is getting laid today, and then we are almost home free.....


Hubby and I started to share our visions of how we want it set up last night.
I was almost shaking with excitement to show him this picture! I thought I am so close to the dream becoming reality! Till he shared his vision.......
He wants to hang his beloved sports memorabilia:


And display his collection of toys from horror movies:



How Horrible is this?
Stop giggleing, close your mouth and lower those eye brows! I can see them from here!
I know its "our" house. But .....
Maybe that's how he feels about my stuff?
How does one meet in the middle with this?

Right now I am fighting every being in my body not to set fire to the whole thing!
HELP!
WHAT WOULD YOU DO?
