Playroom

 This isn't a table, but I wanted to share it anyway.  Our house is what I call a modified split level style.  There are three steps up from the foyer to the livingroom which left us with a room with a six foot ceiling under the foyer. This area was perfect for a kids' playroom. 
   

  The decor features a border of our three youngest kids' handprints. Missy had just turned three (red handprint), J.T. was almost five (blue handprint), and Sam was six (yellow handprint). 


One of the walls is splattered painted in red, yellow, and blue.  I was able to do the splattering during the point in construction of the house before any flooring or trim had been installed making this task much simpler.



The opposite wall is painted with chalkboard paint.  I used alphabet stamps to make a border on this wall. 


Numbers were stamped on an adjacent wall.



Handprints were placed at chair rail height on the remaining two walls.
This playroom has been wonderful place for the kids to play, but, alas, they've grown up, as children do.  One is a sophomore in college, the middle child is a senior and the (sniff) baby is a junior in high school.  It will be converted to a storage room...but the handprints will remain.
