The dreaded playroom.....

I am never satisfied with the playroom. The kids have gotten past the point of many toys, now they like to play video games or fooseball or just watch TV so our playroom is not really a playroom anymore. I try to make it look nice but it always ends up being the catch all for everything in the house, plus ou look directly into the room when you enter our front door which is a constant frustration to me when its all over the place......and yet that's where the kids have fun.
I've struggled with what to do and finally decided I need to go with it for the next number of years, as its the place where the kids have friends and hangout and watch TV. It also resolves a lot of arguments when we need two TVs or one wants to watch TV and the others play video games.
I found this dresser for $50 on the garage sale site and have plans to repaint and finish it. It has lots of storage for seasonal items and looks good up against the wall. I bought the mirror for $10 and spray painted and distressed it. Loved how that turned out. TJMaxx helped with a couple of items to pull it all together and an iron rod from Rod Works to display some of our Florida pictures on the opposite wall. A couple of wreaths I already had and TA DA.... I'm happy with how it turned out but Im sure it wont last long with the kids and their friends....that's ok! As long as they enjoy it Im happy....
