Bookcases

Bookcases can be used for storage or as a showcase! Add a little wallpaper inside Ikea’s Hemnes bookcase and it looks downright amazing.

Ikea's Vittsjo series is also wonderfully transformable and really makes a statement when painted to a bright hue. I just love how stylish yet unencumbering this piece can be in a room. Kid safety comes first, so switch out the glass shelving to wood and brace it to the wall. You can see this on Centsational Girl.

Play Area Rug

Last but not least is my next DIY project. Rugs will give any room a burst of color and create a great space for the kids to play. I couldn't seem to find a perfect rug for my girls’ room and haphazardly stumbled across Pudel Design’s hand painted Ikea rug. I cannot wait to pull out the stencils and get this project going!
