Creating The Perfect Kids Playroom

With kids come toys. Lots and lots of toys! Every parent knows the struggle of having their living room converted into a playroom. Keeping the kids entertained and occupied versus keeping your house tidy and livable is a daily battle. But what if everyone could have their own space to enjoy? The ideal solution to this struggle is to have a dedicated playroom – an area where the kids can play happily, but without having every toy they own strewn throughout your house.

Turn your spare bedroom or a corner of the basement into a play space or improve the value of your home by adding a loft conversion or an extension to make a playroom the kids will love. Wherever you make room, use these tips for creating the perfect space.

  1. Storage, storage, storage
    Kids accumulate a lot of stuff, so it’s necessary to keep the place tidy by having ample storage, including shelves, toy boxes, and cupboards to tuck away their things.
  1. Floorspace
    You don’t want to overcrowd the room, leaving the kiddos with no room to spread out their things to play. The more floor space you can give them, the better.
  1. Comfy Space
    While the kids will love their own play area, they’ll also love their own chill-out zone. Bean bag chairs make the perfect spot to read a good book, play video games, or watch a favorite movie.

JM Construction/ JM Kitchen and Bath, your St. Charles kitchen and bath professionals, also specialize in whole home renovations. When you’re ready to give the kids their own play space, call on us to get the job done.

Create the Perfect Basement Guest Suite

With a large out-of-town family and tons of friends scattered across the country, your house is the hub for holiday gatherings and summer break getaways. If you love all the company but wish you had better overnight accommodations than the sofa or an air mattress than it’s time to consider a basement makeover. Creating a guest space or in-law suite will give your company privacy while giving you back some personal space as well.

Your basement is an underused space that isn’t living up to its full potential. Transforming your unfinished basement is the perfect solution for a guest bedroom with an en-suite bathroom. No longer will your friends and family be bunking in the spare bedroom between your master suite and the kid’s bedrooms. They’ll finally have an area of your home that’s meant just for them.

If you’re thinking of turning your basement into an extra bedroom, you’ll want to be sure to brighten it up with ample lighting and make it as inviting as the rest of your home. Make sure the basement suite doesn’t feel like an afterthought by choosing the furnishings as carefully as you would for your family rooms, including beautiful bedding, artwork, and a comfortable seating area.

Ready to get started? Contact the team of St. Charles Kitchen and Bath contractors at JM Construction / JM Kitchen And Bath by calling (636) 332-6800. Your newly renovated guest suite will make for a beautiful, warm, and cozy retreat for out-of-town guests that will have them wanting to extend their stay and return often!
