We wanted to utilize our loft that overlooks the living/family room and kitchen as our daughter’s playroom and we wanted to spend as little money possible. The entire room came together for under $350!

      Your playroom is great, but I must say…your beautiful daughter is the shining star! Her eyes are amazing! I love the fabric on the back of the bookcases. What an original way to bring lots of color to a space while leaving the walls neutral.

      The playful mix of colors makes the room very enticing to play in. I love what you did with that curiosity wall. So original and interesting!

      LOVE LOVE LOVE this room! Love the pillows, walls, rug, shelves…all of it is incredible. You mentioned that you thought the rug was too small for the room. I think it looks great but just curious if you tried putting it at an angle? Just a thought! And down the road, bean bags and more pillows on the floor in coordination colors might “fill” in some of the carpeted space as well. What an awesome room for your precious little girl!

      I just love the fabric, especially on the bookcases! Do you know where you got the bookcases?

      How did you adhere the fabric to the bookshelves? I am about to start decorating a nursery for my 3rd baby and I would love to make the bookshelves a little more interesting. This is a great idea!

      I LOVE this room! I’ve been looking all over for the rug and can’t find it. Do you happen to know the brand and/or does it have a tag with more info? I would really appreciate any help.
      Thanks!

      Thank you all for your sweet comments!

      Lesley, the bookshelves are from homedecorators.com.

      Jessie, to adhere the fabric to the back of the bookshelves I took the backing off, covered them with the fabric and then simply used a strong shipping tape to tape around the backside, then I nailed it back in place.

      Deniz, the tag on the rug says “Chica Collection” Design: #T033/20386ZB in leaf green/pink
