Expedit Change Up

As our family grows and changes, so do our needs in the house.  I'm constantly moving things around in our house to change things up.

I did a post a long time ago about what our playroom looked like you can go HERE to check it out.

Here is what the playroom looked like before I changed it over the weekend.  It only took an hour at the most to make the change.  Here is to keeping it real as to what this room normally looks like but worse.

When I originally set this room up I had already had the dark Expedit and really did not want to pay for another one and thought it would work because we had other dark furniture in the room.  I really did not like it though.  The clutter on top of the shelves always drove me crazy.  It was all the things that we would take away from the kids when they were in trouble.  They eventually were getting to the point where they were climbing up to get them.  George wanted to be able to have his books out but this was not really the place to have them.

Over all, the room just gave me anxiety!  Too much clutter and stuff drive me crazy, so it was time for a change.

I decide to remove the brown expedite and turn the two white Expedit on their side. Here is how it turned out.

Ahhhh, much better!

On the other side of the gate is what my dad calls my "playpen". (office area) 

I had gum balls on the picture frames and had to remove them because I knew little fingers were going to try and eat them.

Here is my "playpen"

It's nice to be able to change a room up and not have to pay anything to do so.  We put the brown Expedit in our closet.  I will do a post on that next.

Thanks for stopping by!!
