The World's Smallest Playroom

018

I have been meaning to take some updated pictures of our little playroom for the last few years.  A lot has evolved in there since we first created it.  Yesterday we did a complete clean out/rearranging/reorganizing of the space so I was inspired to finally take some pictures.

This space is actually an under the stairs closet.  It is probably about 21 square feet in size.  It is teeny, tiny.  But I think that's what makes it so special.  And with some good organization and a minimalist mindset it serves it's purpose beautifully.

On the wall to the right when you walk in are hanging some of the most often used dress up clothes.  We keep the rest upstairs in a toy box and I switch things up from time to time but this makes for easy access to the favorites.

This is the kitchen.  In our most recent rearrange we put the stove and dresser back to back to create two separate rooms- a bedroom and a kitchen.  The kids are really liking this part of the change.  As Grace says, "It feels so much more like a home in there!"

Here is the kitchen "pantry".  And yes these shelves usually don't look like this.  In such a small space things get messy really fast.  The flipside is with the small space and less toys it is also a very easy room to clean up (my favorite actually).  Under the curtain at the top there is where all our games are housed.

Here is the bedroom/beds and dresser (you can barely see that).  That's Grace's new bunkbed on the left.

Another view of almost the whole room (except that I'm taking up half of the kitchen).
So yes, it is very small, or as we like to say here, it's cozy.
