DIY Home Decor and Project Ideas

Kids Train Table

Like couches in living rooms, activity tables are staple furnishings for playrooms.

However, they can be quite pricey, especially considering the fact that kids aren’t exactly gentle on furniture.

Janette from Style with Cents shares how to make a table that is TWICE as big and HALF the cost of one of Pottery Barn Kid’s most popular activity tables using MDF and fence posts.

I can’t say it any better than Janette – “That’s what you call WINNING, my friends.”

Janette’s table is similar to the Carolina Play Table from Pottery Barn Kids

Sandbox with Canopy and Bench

Tis the season to get outside and play – with a Pottery Barn inspired sand box! Chrissy from Mommy’s Tool Belt built this amazing sandbox for her kiddos, and it has so many design elements that I love.

It is a generous six feet in size, includes wrap-around seating, and has a canopy to provide for shade.

Chrissy even added outdoor string lights to kick up the cuteness factor a little more. This looks like the perfect place for hours of summer play!

Chrissy was inspired by the retired Chesapeake Sandbox with Awning from Pottery Barn Kids.

Kid’s Collapsible Teepee

I am betting most kids would love to have their own play teepee, but, as a parent, you may be wondering where in the world you could easily store a seven foot teepee in your house.  Lindsay of Lindsay and Drew has the answer with this space-saving, collapsible teepee she created out of PVC pipe and drop cloth.

Pull it out for hours of fun and then easily store it when you’re done!

GIANT Kids Clipboard Easel

Jamie from That’s My Letter and Ana White have joined forces to design and create building projects that would be make great gifts this holiday season.

One of their gems is this mondo-sized clipboard easel.

The clip is completely functional and the board is painted with chalkboard paint so kiddos can draw on it with chalk too! How awesome is that?!? My artistic daughter would go crazy over this!
