Make It Comfortable
When the kids need to study, the low, plush cushions are far more inviting than desk chairs. A vinyl mat provides the same softness underfoot as a rug, but it’s easier to keep clean—especially when the doors are open. A coat of white paint freshened up the entire space.
Use Every Surface
To allow room for the car (or a yoga mat), Karri added hooks for storing sports gear, monkey bars for climbing to the loft bed, and clips for hanging interchangeable equipment, like a swing or punching bag.
Leave Room to Grow
By making the space easy to adjust, Karri ensured it would meet the family’s needs now and in the future. She’s also helping her youngest practice independence at a safe distance. “I organized the walls so my 12-year-old and her friends can access whatever they want, but without my help,” she explains.
