Everything you need to know before you install wood countertops.

And it still is, really!.When Chris was able to turn this formerly awkward and useless wall in Kennedy’s room into the star of the show, I was sold!

Built-ins for every room in the house!Brace yourself, Chris..The wall where this sheving/desk area is located, is just between the bedroom door and the closet door.

It’s kind of a weird angle and we really could never figure out what to put there.Any freestanding furniture blocked the flow of traffic to the closet and just really reminded us how small this room is, even though it’s the biggest of the three upstairs rooms..

This room feels huge now though!

All of Kennedy’s junk is miraculously.It’s so fresh and clean in there now!.

We got a new grey rug that was much much bigger than the old red one before.It’s just a cheapo, but having that big clean surface for kids to play on makes the room feel so much more usable.

When it gets stray pieces sticking out from Chuck and his long nails, we just give it a little hair cut.. After those basics were taken care of, I’ve just slowly been adding things here and there, following some little rules I made for this room in my head and now this room makes me jump for joy.Sometimes literally.
