Ok, folks. I need some help. I feel a little bit of pressure to *do* something with our playroom (among other rooms) before the twins get here. I know it'll be a while after the twins arrive before I feel up to doing much to our house, so I'd like to finish some projects before their arrival. Normally I get some inspiration for a room and get things under way before long. BUT... this room has me at a complete standstill. Here it is now.
Blah, huh?? It needs some pizzaz! Some excitement! Some color! I know this, but I don't know what to do about it!!! AAAHHHHH!! Help!! It needs to be functional and fun. So? What are your ideas? Please don't leave me with 0 comments on this one.
Are you a pinterest person?? There's your inspiration right there! I'll never have another original idea in my life - but by golly, I'll have some cute stuff thanks to pinterest! :) Go check it out and i"m sure you'll get lots of inspiration! -Krissy
ReplyDeletePAINT!!! It's the cheapest, quickest, easiest way to totally change a room! Stripes could be cute for kids -- I could help. xx
ReplyDeleteI was also thinking *stripes* before I even read your comments! Blues? With white and yellow, with tiny, red pinstripes? I would paint the stripes on the wall with windows, and make the other walls a solid color. The wooden blinds would really *pop*. Throw in some solid throw pillows or beanbags... and three adorable boys, of course. :)
ReplyDeleteHow about a mural painted on the wall? A gigantic MAP, so they'll know where Alaska is (har, har, Annie)! OR a big truck with a bed full of toys, OR a painted race track so they can zoom their cars around, OR a circus tent-top with animals under it OR animal cracker zoo cars with animals in each one, OR a train OR......want me to go on?
ReplyDeleteWHOA!!! Y'all have some awesome ideas - thanks!! So, which one do I go with? And now... if I only knew how to draw. Sadly, I never graduated from the school of stick figures :( I'll keep you posted on what happens in there!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for stopping by and leaving such a sweet comment. This is a nice sized room. It would be cute with white beadboard or board and batten added all around with a little ledge at the top of it. A cute bold color above it or keep it neutral and add bold art.
ReplyDeleteForgot to say congrats on the twins.
