536773_467802129956052_355464958_nI like the schoolhouse vintage inspired lights.  The two lights in a half bath I think is a fun new idea.

67290_467801939956071_1844354837_nI love the overall feeling of this room – the style, the furniture, the finishes, all awesome.  I just don’t like where the fireplace is located.  The iron gate on it bugs me a little, but mostly just the location.

3619_467801809956084_829569190_nInstead of buying pedestals that match your washer and dryer, why not build in a bench that matches your cabinets?  This will look better when you have to replace your washer and dryer 10 years down the road.  This is a better investment in the long run, saving you from buying NEW pedestals with your new washer and dryer. The raised washer and dryer is also a good design idea universal design (as in, everyone can use it).

485243_467801949956070_2119515320_n 547433_467801933289405_1819617905_n 548997_467801596622772_1788548138_n 549610_467801479956117_2059604886_nI love this bonus room because it has a pop of subtle color.  Its not rainbow, but its not ALL brown.  I would love to see a bit more color on the sofas or rug, but I love the hardwood floors in here.  It makes the room feel like a real part of the house, rather than a play room to stash toys and preschool decor.  Again, the vaulted ceilings with the planks are my favorite upgrade you can add to a new construction home.  That and air conditioners.

Happy House Hunting!

Brooke - Brooklyn Berry Designs

Hey, I’m Brooke!

I am a mom to 4 boys in Calgary, Alberta.  I love learning how things are made, singing to the radio loudly, and can’t stop talking. Fueled by diet coke and chaos, I can often be found working on a project.  You can hang out here for craft ideas and tips, games and activities to do with kids, plus FREE svg files and printables.
