Before and After: Hall Closet Turned Changing Station.

So, when your house is not huge, sometimes you have to get creative with your storage solutions.  We have a three bedroom house, but the third bedroom is a "music room" that has a piano, keyboard and a couple guitars stored in there, not to mention all kinds of other stuff that has nowhere else to go.  This presented a little problem for where to put the new baby's stuff.  Not the new baby, because we believe in sharing a bedroom with our little ones for quite awhile, and the bassinet and crib fit in there just fine.  But a dresser/changing table, diapers, clothes, etc. 

We decided that it would be okay with us to do away with our hall closet and turn it into a changing station/storage area for the baby.

Here is the closet before:



And here it is after!



Look at the teeny clothes!  Dresser from IKEA.



Froggy lamp from IKEA.



We had to remove a shelf, so that there would be enough room to maneuver in there, and then we painted it with some paint we had leftover from another project.  I added navy blue dragonfly decals from TweetHeartWallArt.   The teal changing pad cover is from LittleOwlsNest.

I love our little changing nook!  It's right off of the living room, so it's convenient, and until we can get into a bigger house, I think that it works very nicely.
