BEFORE
At the back end of our new room is a little nook we decided to finish and use as a "playhouse" for the kids. We weren't sure if it would work out or be worth the extra cost and effort but it definitely was!
This is the entryway to the playhouse from the loft/playroom. I made the curtains from 2 place mats and I'm going to make a sign to hang above the door that says "Home Sweet Home".
Here is the view from inside the new room. There is a good size step up to the play area (a step that Campbell falls off of daily ;0).
This "project" of building the new room and playhouse started in March and has been quite the experience. I can't tell you how many late nights Trevor spent hammering in nails or how many trips to Home Depot he made. It has been so much work but it has added so much to our house!
We love to just sit up there as a family and read or watch movies or just play with the kids.
It has been a great blessing in so many ways. When Trevor told me he wanted to do this back in February I was VERY hesitant (we've never done anything like this before!) but I'm so glad I finally gave in! He did a great job.
(as soon as we finish the doors in the main room I will post pictures of that too)

I bet the extra room is so nice! I love the playhouse, it is too cute!
What a fun place for your kids! It looks great. I am so impressed by Trevor. I can't wait to see the rest of the room!
I love your playhouse! I was thinking you could also use the little window as a puppet theater. You and Trevor are both so creative and talented.
You must be so proud of your man! Sounds like you've had a lot of projects these days. Nesting, are we?
That room will add so much to your house.
What a fun room for the kids! It is one of those places they will ALWAYS remember as part of their childhood. Nice job Grubzies!!
