Another room finished! This one is an area in the basement leading to the third bedroom (in the process of becoming my sewing room/Jake's office) and the laundry area. We decided it would make a great playroom for Liam.
Originally I wanted to do it all white, floors included. I am in love with the European designed white rooms. It turned out to be a little tough to do white flooring, as we would have had to paint a wood floor, and in the end would have been a little more work that we were up for at the time. We ended up doing the same flooring as the upstairs, and I do like the effect.
I found these baskets at Zellers to hold some of the smaller toys, but they didn't have a liner in them. These wouldn't have been too bad to make had I not wanted to save fabric and do just the band with the coloured fabric. They turned out, just don't look too closely :)
I love all this fabric, but the "Jacob Loves You" pillow is my favorite. It actually was a shirt that was given to me years ago, and I always wanted to make a pillow out of it. This was the perfect place for it!
And my favorite part of the whole room:
The pallet bed inspiration came from here, and the alphabet wall from here.
