Playroom for Princesses

Living Room

 As I told you in my last post,  we've been rearranging the house and are transforming our living room into a play room.  I had really hoped to be finished by now, but alas, my timetable seems to be too ambitious again.  We have made a lot of progress, however.  Here is a glimpse at what is happening at our house.

Play/School Room

 The living room furniture has made way for a table (IKEA clearance, folks!) and my husband made it shorter by cutting the legs down several inches.  We can't have the little princesses struggling to reach the table!  Four smaller chairs (red!) are in the works.

The large, red shelving unit moved up from the basement and now holds a wealth of toys and books. Tikvah's desk has moved down from her room, and fits nicely in the corner on the left.   My favorite chair is to the right of the shelves, so we are all set for playing and doing school work in this room.

  
And do you see that thing on the right?   

On Saturday, this "mystery item" was an U-G-L-Y entertainment center purchased at Goodwill - on clearance, of course.  It was fake oak with glass doors.  We removed the doors, and you can see that it has become red, black and white....why?  A friend gave me a GOOD IDEA!  Stay tuned.  You won't believe it!
