our new playroom!

We were busy this week redoing our playroom! Our old room just wasn't working in so many ways so we recruited nana & papa and got to work.Hubby wasn't too sure about my vision at first but he let me run with it and we are both thrilled with the results. It looks great and everything has a space---the kids also love it and Ava told me it is "the best playroom ever!". It's so organized and bright and easy to clean up. We still have a few more things to hang and an art display area but here it is!



looking in

new wall storage
a tv will eventually go in the space when the kids are older

kitchen area


dress up trunk


marker/crayon storage

some of the boxes are still empty and I re did our filing system too so it's super organized {bottom right}

frames from Target and on clearance obviously


wall ledge {I'm heading to get pictures now}

our sand jar has a place now


desk area still needs a few things hung


my little helper

new knobs too!

the before---yuck!
Hubby also redid Ava's and our closet and they look great! He did a great job and everything is so organized---now we just have to keep it that way :) A big thanks to nana & papa for all their help!

Love it! I'm creating a learning room and was really hoping to use some of the expedit units. Love the bar with the crayons hanging.

Have to ask about your paint color though- is it blue or gray? :)

Wow! Just come over from iheartorganising too. This looks so lovely! I LOVE your sand jar - beaches are our favourite daytrips so I think I'll be pinching that idea.
I also love that your desk is tucked behind the shelves - I guess a no-go area for the little ones?
Looks like a great family space.

I love your new playroom/office. Can you tell me where you bought the shelving units? they look like Ikea shelfs but when searching their webist I didn't see anything like it.

giggles, grins & good times!
