Hi everyone! So I'm really happy to say that I'm in the middle of unpacking and moving into our new home!! We ended up finding a 3 bedroom craftsman style home in the historic homes part of our town. Our home was actually built in 1926!! It's almost 100 years old and sooooo beautiful. I really love it.
It has a ton of built ins, charm, and a bigggg backyard. I just really love it. I am not going to share photos of every room just yet because I am still trying to find a place for everything and soft out the things I'm going to donate to my local thrift stores.
Buuuuuut- I'm going to share photos of the kids' room today with y'all. Funny story: before I got to see the home, my realtor said that it was more like a 2 bedroom with a small room that maybe a desk could fit into. This had me not wanting to even see the house because UHH HELLO WHERE WILL MY OFFICE GO? Soooooo long story short when we saw the home I originally thought, "well, she was wrong it could work for an office." But honestly- the more I looked and thought about it I really could see that as the kids' room. It is 7ft by 9ft and more than enough space.
My sisters pretty much thought I was crazy, but I closed off the door that had access to the kitchen and made it work. I've been very selective over what goes in there and how I store toys. I didn't want to have to get rid of all of their toys, (that would just be so mean), haha!
What I love most about their room is that it is attached to our bedroom. I feel that it is much safer and leaves me feeling better. Another nice thing is the built in closet. It has added storage up top and a drawer on bottom. I am using the top to store things I don't need right now and bottom drawer for clothes that don't fit (yet) and shoes.
I donated a bunch of their clothes and I feel so much better now that they have less in there!! It was a disaster and was so overwhelming!
I wish that I had more wall space for art, so I'm having a hard time finishing the gallery wall and actually keep changing it completely.
I am obsessed with the pillowfort collection that Target is carrying right now. I let Opal go crazy and pick out her bedding, rug, and wall art. They're actually gonna be on sale 20% off starting tomorrow (march 6th). I wanna go get my receipt adjusted so that I can buy more!!! Hahaha!!! 😂
So now y'all are up to date on my first completed room in the new home. I'm almost done with the laundry room so I'll share that one next ❤️
