I was at a garage sale (and a couple more since than...)
and a family had a bunch of
broken/damaged
kids items that were easily fixable.
I picked up this this table that
was in the "FREE"
pile and took it home...
and let it sit in the garage ever since...
(It sat there so long that Shaun thought it was garbage
and we almost had
a horrible end to this story)
In our last house we didnt have
a "Playroom" per say...
the kiddos toys were in
the corner of the family room, which was very convenient
since they were both very little,
and did not need a ton of room to run and jump etc.
This next house we buy will
hopefully have an area for toys!
Anyway, back to the table....
this table has become the main design
inspiration for a future playroom.
This is the plan:
Color scheme-Red, Turquoise, Gray
Main Furniture pieces- teepee , metal kids table w 2 chairs...
it will be industrial design, meets vintage, meets eclectic
I found the red chevron fabric at a Joanns store
that was moving to a different location, and
had everything on close-out prices.
BEFORE: torn plastic, horribly ugly colors and print...I think I had a shirt that looked like this in the '80s |
Cost break Down:
Fabric-Joann fabric closeout sale chevron print(50% off + 30% off) = $ 3.50/yard
Plastic covering (50% off + 30% off) = $1.75/yard
Spray Paint- Rustoleum metal color $4 at walmart
TOTAL COST = $9.25
You are really talented!! Great job:)
