The mudroom~craftroom~playroom~reveal!
Ready for the big reveal?
It’s such a tight space to photograph but I tried my best.
I have had so much fun transforming this room with you! Thanks for being so patient with us and joining in on the ride!

Enjoy!
Walking in from the garage looking straight ahead
at the kids computer area and toy storage.

Click for ruffle tutorial.
Click for silhouette tutorial.
If you walk in from the house you see my craft area where I painted my grandmothers
Sewing machine.
Walking in from the garage you see the mudroom wall.
Some of you asked where we purchased the book shelf. It was a craigslist find for $30. I have seen them new at Ikea for $99.
The bench was free at a garage sale.
You can find out how we made the wall organizer out of two used pieces here.
Hooks from Target
Woven baskets from Ikea. I covered the magazine holders with fabric.
The kids craft area is bright and sunny under the window.
The shutters were purchased on Craigslist for $20.
Table was free from a friend, which I transformed.
Here are some before shots, so bad!
Once again, thank you, for your support, encouragement and such kind words!
Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
Love-
Kristin
Wow! Looks fantastic Kristin! I love the built in with the seat, hooks and storage! Great job!
Beautiful!
Do you have photos where you can see the whole room at once? I don’t see any.
Hi Becki, I’m so sorry I don’t, this was 10 years ago and the room is now an office. If you have any specific questions I can try to answer them.
This is incredible! Organized and pretty, my favorite combo!
Your mudroom looks amazing Kristin! I love soo much about it! Well done! 🙂
Gorgeous and functional use of the space! Well done! So many great detials. It must be a joy to have such a pretty and functional area.
How incredible!! Can you please come do mine?!!! What a fantastic job!!!
Wow, wow, wow! It is so beautiful! What's even better is it's beautiful and super functional. I love that! Great job!
p.s. what section of Target did you find the metal baskets in? I'm at Target all the time and I've never seen them. maybe I need to look in a different part of the store?
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful! Thanks for sharing!

Kristin this is such an amazing room! You did such a wonderful job with everything! All your details are so pretty and I still just can't believe the storage. Enjoy your creative/mudroom space and thank you for taking us along, I enjoyed it very much!
What a transformation! I am in love with your color choices. I'm sure everyone will enjoy the space. Great job!
It was worth the wait to see the finished project. I think you guys did an amazing job transforming this area of your home. It's so organized but still warm and inviting. I know you love and by all of the comments above you know we love it, too!
Great transformation, it's awesome! I love the little details you've added. The Target baskets are perfect. You did a lovely job with all the sewing! I'm sure it's such an enjoyable room now 🙂 So user friendly. Really love your corner, too!

Love this! My favorite is the bench and the hidden garage door opener.
what an amazing difference, you must be enjoying it. you did an excellent job. my favourite is the bench area and the hooks and shelving above
Absolutely stunning. Hard to believe you could make so many useful areas in one space. Your sewing corner looks wonderful as well as convenient. Great coat/storage/bench area, love the way you hid the garage door opener. Totally great colors, usefulness and decoration.

Gorgeous! So light, airy, & pretty! Love the colors!!
Wow, Kristin! I think it's an awesome use of space! Love all your attention to detail… from the garage door opener, to the ruffles! Beauty and function! Your little sewing corner is perfect. I could see spending a lot of time there. It was fun to see it all come together. Looks great!!!

Michelle
I am so wanting a space like this! I don't think I would ever leave!! You did a fantastic job!
Love your new space Kristin!! It's so girly and creative, and functional and fun…great work! Isn't decorating with organization the best. So jealous over here in NC!

Kristin, This new space is fabulous!! It is so light and airy and such a pretty space. I love that you added a crystal chandy too. Beautiful!

I love it! There are just so many things I like about this room that I'm not even going to attempt to list them all. Lets just say I love it and wish you could come over and make me one!
Completely impressed with you!!!
That is one beautiful room! My favorite idea was the cover for the garage door. Our home has remote controls for some of our fans/lights. They are so ugly, but we haven't found a way to hide them. Thinking we might try hiding them the way you did since they aren't used that much.
I am in LOVE with this and totally jealous! You did the most amazing job and it turned out gorgeous!
WOW!!!!!!!!!! Kristin…what a beautiful room you have created..so cozy and inviting. LOVE it.
Hugs,
Rozmeen
Isn't it exciting when you finally finish a project and just love it!! Working together on your home for your family to enjoy…can't wait to get back to that!!

Well done on fitting a lot in a little space. I love the overhead shelves with the bench below and the little cover you made for the garage door opener.
It looks fantastic! Everything is so bright and cheery, with a place for everything. You did an outstanding job!
Wow Kristin! That is no ordinary mudroom! Your mudroom is fabulous! I love the transformation! Now can you come down here and transform mine? Mine is so far down on my list of room to do's that it will probably be 2012 before I get to it!

It is gorgeous, Kristin! I love every inch of it. You have put a lot of thought into each detail that went into your space. You did a fabulous job. It's a nice and light and airy room, with lovely colors and the perfect touch of bling. I adore the ruffled curtain and those beautiful pillows you made with the sweet ruffle. Your mudroom should be featured in a magazine!
