This week my friend Tsh, of Simple Mom, launches this year’s Project Simplify. She’s starting us off in Kids’ Spaces and, as I’ve mentioned recently, my family’s kid spaces are in serious need of some attention and tender loving care after a few months of post-baby neglect.
I’m going to give the bedrooms and our loft playroom the bulk of my Spring Cleaning attention this week. I’m going to focus on our loft playroom in this post and I thought I would share with you my “before” pictures before I get started.
I’ve had a few weeks to really think about our home and the children’s things and I’ve been deciding which things we need to downsize and which things we just need to re-figure the storage of and the way we use the space currently.
Here are two areas I really need to focus on: the play kitchen and the children’s desk. The image above shows the actual spaces exactly the way they were, no pre-picking up on my part (man, that was hard to resist!) before I photographed them at 7:30 this morning.
