Though my room will not be a fraction as good as most of the gorgeous ones people post up it will still be fun to show everyone the new playroom we have in the house.
Since I was beginning to keep two kids besides my own two and our house STILL hasn't sold, we had to get rid of our guest room :( because we were in need of somewhere to put the toy overflow. I would love to have painted the walls but I am not painting because I will want to paint my new house WHEN we get one (positive thinking) Anyway enough rambling. Here we go!
I did a lot for this conversion because most of it we already had but I'll share prices for both to be fair :)

I love the artwork that Micah did. So cute and meaningful too! That's genius to use the placemats and table runner in a different way. Very creative!
ReplyDeleteLOVE the napkins/valance...adorable!!! It looks like a room any child would want to play in. The futon looks great too. :) I love your colors. Visiting from The Nester's party. :)
ReplyDeleteIt looks so awesome! Maybe I will get inspired to actually finish Braden's playroom. I just need to get motivated to finish the art for the walls and hang it up.
ReplyDeleteYou did such a great job!
Cute room!
ReplyDeleteVery cute...I bet your little guy LOVES it. I'm in the process of finishing up my play room too.
ReplyDeleteCute! We're trying to sell so we can have a place for all our toys too.. It's rediculous! :)
ReplyDeleteIt looks great, love the window treatment!
this playroom is so cute. love the green accents.
ReplyDeleteI saw those same place mats at TJ Maxx and was trying to figure out what I could do with them in my daughter's room since they would match.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea!
