Just joining us? Read about the Basement to Playroom Transition to catch up. Also, you can catch up on all the related posts here: Renovations.
I have finished buying things for the basement; because, frankly, I need to be. Otherwise, we will be in the same crap-filled situation we were before. And, may I remind you of our borderline Hoarders situation? Yikes...but, on a good note, I finally found what I was looking for! Check it out! :)

I am still not 100% in love with the open, backless shelves; nonetheless, I will make it work. How so? Of course, I'm going to fill this unit with cute totes! These were the ones I decided on...probably too many. But, I sure would hate to not have enough!

These polka dots were just what I was looking for! I decided on some other, not-so-girly colored totes (the teal and lime ones). I'm really trying to make this room non-gender-specific. But, I will admit, the dark pink has gotten a little out of hand...
Who knew I had such a soft spot for dark pink, dark purple, lime green, and teal? Future Lucy big-girl-room colors? Hmmmm......
Heath is at home today finishing up on the painting. Then, this Friday they are finishing up the trim. To end the night, I get to fly in, scrub carpets, vacuum, and dust. Don't be jealous; your day will too come. haha. Right!
Perhaps on Saturday, I will get to start moving in furniture!
Alright, so here is what I left you with:
Yes - I know. It's a perfect diagram of the room. I should be an architect...but, enough talk about all of my talents. Let's move on.
I am thinking this layout for furniture:
I sure hope I can give you all a final renovation update next Monday!!
Any fun ideas or suggestions for our playroom, before I make our final touches?
CUTE! Yes, I am very familiar with the Target brand :) I WISH we had a basement to put the play room in. Our house is SOOO not kid friendly! The toys are SPLAYED across our kitchen and living room. It's not pretty.
ReplyDelete@RavenIt happens to the best of us! :) I am glad to have a playroom; but, unfortunately, I lost my work-out room too. I had to move the treadmill! Ugh. Why can't we just have houses with an array of rooms?
ReplyDeleteThat's the shelf we have- though ours is in the dark wood color & I got ours at Walmart. :) There is that lovely cardboard stuff that you can put in the back of 5 of the spaces, so you will have a back of sorts on it & only 4 will be open- you can put the totes in the open ones & hide the back & then use the other ones for books, toys, etc. Glad you were able to find it!
