Baby-sized Mousehole for a Playroom

playroom for babies and toddlers

I wish we had enough space in our home to have a playroom just to make our own. I saw it on Dear Genevieve. She used the bottom of a bookcase – built on a closet – to make a child’s fort with an entrance shaped as a mousehole. This is brilliant and fun. I can’t imagine a toddler that will not be thrilled by this. But in our case, our son-to-be would have to share it with our two cats.

    I too loved this playroom with the fun mouse hole. I have been trying to find the wallpaper ever since it aired but they do not list sources on the HGTV website. Do you know what wallpaper was used?

    I loved the organizers but cannot find the store she went to either. They don’t list it. Apparently we can look up any product they used as long as it was from Crate and Barrel or Ikea.
