You may remember that our bonus room used to be beige, boring, and blah… We had an eclectic blend of hand-me-down furniture and nothing matched. We finally took the time and money to spruce up our “playroom” since it is where we spend the majority of our time together. Here is what it looked like before:
And here it is now:
We purchased this couch at Macy’s and bought it especially for the chaise lounge at the end. We are planning on lots of long nights sleeping upright with a certain little bundle in our arms.
Here’s another view. We painted the room the same grey-blue as our bedroom, and I just love the orange accents.
Looking to the left, you can see our Christmas tree and Ellie Kate’s play corner. This is where we keep all of her toys.
Here’s a close-up of the play corner. This is probably the most organized spot in our house. I cant stand toy clutter so we only keep out a couple of things at a time.
Back across the room (behind the couch) is MY play corner :) This is where I blog, craft, and now embroider!
Here’s the view from my computer desk. Notice the baby swing in the corner : )

Love the blue and orange combo. Everything looks great together!
What a difference a little color and new furniture makes! As always, I LOVE all of the new improvements. It looks like such a cozy playroom/family room.
Wow...I LOVE that blue color! What's the name/brand? I'm thinking of painting our bathroom that color...but I'm having troubles finding the right hue. It's either too blue or too grey. Thanks!! :-)
it all looks so great! and i'm drooling over your sectional. ::runs off to find it at macy's::
I love it! I especially am in love with the couch...it looks so comfortable!
That looks great! So cozy and welcoming.
I love it, what a great space! :)
I was looking at your blog today and my husband said.... who's blog is that? I was like... oh my friend Katie, except.... we're not really friends. HAHA Even though I feel like I'm you're friend because I've been reading your blog for so long. Funny. I've wanted one of those couches FOREVER. They look so awesome and comfy. :) Also... do you pinterest? Cause... I NEED to follow you on pinterest.

Where did you find that table/desk? It is exactly what I am looking for our loft though I prefer cherry wood but I'd be willing to compromise at this point I've been looking so long!
