help! what color to paint basement playroom?
Comments (10)Thanks so much everyone! I really appreciate all your suggestions. I guess my downfall is that I'm a 'researcher' - I have to see ALL my options out there before I make a decision. Definitely no impulse buys for me - ha! But then of course, it drives dh bonkers because it takes me FOREVER to make up my mind! :) I was actually thinking of a warm cream or light yellow. Dh really wants to paint the floor sage green (which I don't really love, but I rarely let him have his way - haha). So do you think a pale yellow would look ok with a sage green floor? Does anyone have examples or pics of a nice soft yellow (I don't want anything TOO yellow). teacats, I love your art idea! I do really like some of those animal prints or we might even try to paint some ourselves. I was definitely thinking of having dh build a bookcase w/ colorful bins for storage, then I also want to have an arts/crafts area (with a dry erase wall to write on) then also a kitchen/baby doll area, reading nook w/chairs, sports area w/balls & bikes, and then a dress up area too. My problem is I have so many ideas - I just have trouble executing them all! Does anyone know of any cute kids rugs (bright stripes or some type of motif) for under $200? Thanks again for all your help!...See MoreBasement playroom/media room layout ideas please!
Comments (12)Whatever you decide to do, I would, personally, want the toys as far away from the stairs as possible for safety reasons, and tucked into that lower left corner to keep them out of sight when the area gets a bit messy. :-) Of the layouts proposed by ER, my favorite is in the latest batch of 4 (upper left quadrant), right above my post, except I'd put the toys where the exercise equipment is, and have the exercise stuff by the stairs/bathroom wall. I especially like the symmetry of the TV/furniture arrangement with the windows....See MoreHelp- Basement Playroom Ideas
Comments (1)Across the whole back wall I would build a deep shelf with an open bottom at table height. For now it will be good for parking ride on toys under and setting larger playsets like Little People, Barbie, and Hot Wheels. You can add a couple of baskets to catch miscellaneous small toys. I like to group them by people/animals, cars, etc. Later, it will serve as the perfect place to stand and build with Lego, and finally when they are Middle/High School age you can create a study area there. Under the window you can place a bookshelf, and use a sofa floating in the room facing the toy shelf to divide the play area from your work space....See Morepaint color for basement playroom
Comments (15)Maybe this article will help. The colors she's suggesting might work well with Sea Salt. I think Creamy would brighten the room and be a nice backdrop for other colors. I also think white or off-white walls with a black accent wall would be awesome for bright colorful kids' art.
