Kids Area

This repeat Arroyo Grande Client has been so fun for me to work with. We have been transforming her house over the last few months. So many bags have been donated to the thrift store (Shamrock Thrift on Grand Avenue in Grover Beach is my go-to for donations. I often peruse the store while I’m there and frequently find great treasures. My zero-waste goals are always met at the thrift store when I buy thank you/blank cards, arts and craft supplies for my kids, storage bins, vintage items, and more!)  and so much furniture has been rearranged. I absolutely love recreating spaces using items a Client already has. Rearranging furniture is my jam! This space was being used as a homeschool space. The Client wanted it to remain an area for the kids but didn’t need it to be school-only anymore. I moved the bookshelves into the living room where there was a large, empty wall. This created a nice library feeling near the couch to encourage reading. Next, I consolidated three different arts and crafts areas in the house and turned this space into the dedicated arts and crafts area. This family LOVES arts and crafts! Having all the supplies in one space makes finding, using, and returning items so much easier. The space is still a bit full but it suits the Clients’ needs and wants. It makes sense and is, above all, FUNCTIONAL!
