The Playroom

 Happy Thursday!

The playroom was our last stop upstairs... it only received a couple updates but I thought I'd go ahead and share a few photos. Believe it or not, this is one room I don't have a scary "before" picture to share!

 The walls in this room were already painted white when we moved in, but the floors were in a sad state, like the rest of the upstairs.  We continued the same paint color in here as the office/schoolroom for an easy, bright fix.  I cannot believe how much a painted floor can transform a room!

  

The playroom is one of two bedrooms located upstairs.  The girls spend so much time here and it's always the first place the kids run whenever we have company.  I love that the majority of the mess stays out of view since it's tucked away... however, we do still have a toy box downstairs and I assure you by the time evening comes it looks like a small tornado has gone through the entire house (smile).

We also have an extra twin bed in this room.  If we have guests that need more than one room, I'll move Jillian into this twin bed so they can use her bedroom too.  

This is the other small update in this room... our neighbor recently asked if we would like this 1930's iron hospital bed frame.  Umm, that would be a yes!  My husband had to do some minor welding on it to accommodate the larger mattress, so I was pretty excited to finally put it together this week.

Someday I'd like to change out the bedding and perhaps paint the bed frame, but for now this works.

 With all the work we've done around our house, I have not spent too much time decorating in here.  For the most part the walls are bare, but we do have some ideas for shelving sometime... you know, in our spare time (ha)!  It is not unusual for me to leave a wall bare though until I find exactly the right thing.   

  Still, the bright colorful toys and painted floor make it such a cheerful place to be.

 The door leading into the playroom is the original.  We wish many times the previous owners had left the original doors downstairs as well, but I'm glad we still have a couple with us.

 To be honest, this room is often cluttered and simply a mess, but it's a sweet mess filled with precious girls.  I wouldn't change it for the world! 

P.S.  I had no part of this little tea table... I have a little girl who obviously watches her mommy closely and already loves to put a table setting together!  (smile) 

Hope you have a great weekend.  We have plans to go to the pumpkin patch on Saturday and let's just say I'm as excited as Jillian!
