I've been "under the weather" recently, but am grateful to have some wonderful ideas to share from daughter's recent changes to the kids' playroom.
First - a VERY thrifty treasure - a free large wicker chest abandonned by it's owner! That'll hold a lot of toys!
Next, a re-purposed (free!) changing table. Daughter brought it up from the basement to provide shelving for toys - great idea, huh? It was just sitting in the basement all alone, feeling neglected and unneeded!
Lastly, she found this shelf at GW, painted it black and hung it.Next - hang some letters from the shelf. Hmmmmm, what word shall we pick......oh, how about "PLAY"?!
She already had this decorative paper (scrapbooking? not sure?). Anyway, she used letters from HobLob, cut out the paper to fit, and taped the paper each letter. (I guess modge podge or some other glue factor would be next.)

The wicker chest is just wonderful and the changing table is perfect to hold extra toys. I love the "play"letters. That is so cute. I hope you feel better soon. Hugs, Marty
I like free makeovers! Great use for the trunk and the changing table. The letters are just adorable! Hope you are out from under the weather and back to sunshine soon!
Free is good! :) Some great ideas.

I love that wicker chest, and I love the price even more! And those letters hanging from the shelf are just adorable, what a great idea. It looks easy enough that I might even be able to manage it (I am craft impaired!) Hope you feel better soon. Kathy

Love the free wicker chest. And the letters are so creative and fun! Thanks for sharing and hope you feel better.
The "PLAY" letters are adorable. I was thinking of using my son's changing table for storage when he doesn't need it anymore, now I know it'll look great!
Love your tranformation! Love the room color! Stop by for a visit sometime!
