The reason I mention the playhouse in the basement is because I want to share with you today these cute toadstools that I made to decorate the window ledge of the playhouse.
When I was dreaming about and designing the playhouse, I played around with quite a few ideas of what would be used to decorate the window ledge. Originally, I was thinking I would make sunflowers, or Gerber daisies. But eventually landed on toadstools, since I have a weird obsession with them. If my husband didn't restrain me and knock some sense into me, I would probably buy every toadstool type decoration out there. I think they had a nice pop of color into the basement that has a green and orange theme.
Do you have a dedicated playroom in your house? Is there an element of design that you are particularly proud of in your playroom or your home in general?

You SHOULD be proud of that basement-turned-playroom. It's awesome! Has it passed the test-of-time and kids growing up? Have you had to change elements as they grew? Very cute toadstools. An obsession I never knew you had! We haven't done any decorating since we've moved into rental homes. I'm feeling a lil unmotivated too. Oh well!!
ReplyDeleteFor the most part the basement has passed the test of time and the kids still play there A LOT! We had to make 1 adjustment and reinforce some things to stand the abuse of the kids though, like the toadstools actually had to be moved to the "2nd floor" window of the house because it was getting too much abuse at kid level.
DeleteWe don't have a dedicated play room. Baby C usually plays in her room or the living room. I absolutely love your toad stools! I can't wait to see pictures of your playhouse. Awesome!
ReplyDeleteEven with a dedicated play room, our living room is still scattered with toys, haha! I'll have to gather the before and after pictures so I can post on the basement, it will come soon!
