A Complete Room Makeover!

One of the first projects we did when we moved into our home was to build an epic bedroom for our two sons. @CO painted a remarkable scene on the walls and we built a treehouse bunk bed complete with a rock climbing wall, a deck, and a slide! The boys absolutely loved it!

Over the past 15 years, that room has evolved from a bedroom for two young boys, to a private bedroom for one teen, to a guest room for visiting friends and family. Now, we're embarking on a project to transform it into a creative space for Chinloo and me to brainstorm, plan, and create projects to share with all of you.

To figure out how to get this project done, we used our free HomeByMe account to model and decorate the room. It was so easy to layout the walls, doors, and windows and then decorate the room with the types of objects we plan to build for the space. 

We could view the room in 2D or 3D

...as well as from the perspective of standing inside it.

If you haven't tried HomeByMe yet, I can't recommend it enough! It's free, there's nothing to install, it's super fun, and incredibly useful for a project like this. Here's a link to the room we modeled.

In the process of transforming the room, we'll maintain its ability to serve as a cozy space for visiting guests. The perfect solution for this is, of course, to build a murphy bed! We'll post all about that project soon, but here's a sneak peek at the model!

For now, check out this video that shows how the project has already started to take shape!
