I have been working on transforming my basement into usable living space, so I figured it would be a fun project to put up here. I already have my parent's room set-up and the laundry area is in much better condition (I'll try to post before/after pics of those soon) thanks to my sister's help over the last few Sunday afternoons. My goal is to get a hang-out room set up for Ariana by Easter. It won't be a bedroom for her to sleep in (since there are no egress windows), but a place for her to put her clothes, have a lot of her art stuff including her paint supplies and easel and her special fragile things that her siblings are so good at breaking - plus a place for her to be away from siblings when her friends visit.
Here is what I am starting with:
This room has been a storage room with holiday decor, sorted baby and kids clothes for growing into, and a collection of things to "go through". Part of my goal is to go through all the bags and bins of clothes and get rid of everything that doesn't fit in the bins I already have. Some of the bins can be seen in the picture above. That way I will have enough clothes for kids to grow into without having so many clothes that I get overwhelmed and end up with none of the clothes getting worn. I have already moved the holiday decor into my parent's room since that room is so large.
The next step for the room is to put in a floor, finish the walls, paint, add outlets and put in a door. Then we get to move Ariana's things down.
