THE TOY ROOM

For awhile now I have been wanting to make a playroom for the grandkids. Tara has been wanting to help me. So we decided since Cambri and Daxon were coming to visit it would be the perfect time. Here are some pictures of the final product.

We took the closet doors off and Kay and Tara put shelfs up. Brandon painted the shelfs. I made the curtains and Tara and Kay made the Valance.
This is my pride and joy. I took an old brown dresser, sanded it down and then painted it. I keep diapers and wipes in the top two drawers, dress up clothes for boys in the 3rd drawer and dress up clothes in the fourth and fifth drawer for the girls.
Tara and I couldn't find any bedding we were thrilled with so we made our own. The print is a circus theme. We made all the curtains and two bedspreads.
We got two old pictur frames from DI and sanded and painted them. Kay put a piece of metal on the frame and then Tara sprayed it with chalkboard paint. This way the kids can put magnetic letters on the board and also color with chalk. To the left you will notice three shelves. The top one holds markers, the second holds chalk, and the third one holds crayons. They are connected by one board that you can't see because it is painted the same color as the walls. This was Tara's brainchild.
This was Tara's idea but Kay created the finished product. The kids can pull the paper down through the frame, create their masterpiece and then tear it off at the bottom to keep. We had a great time creating this room and the grandkids loved it. What else is there.
