Turned attic storage space into two bedrooms for my kids. Did it all myself so it cost around $120 in paint and polyurethane, $15 in sandpaper for the floors, around $8 for spackle and wood filler, and $15 for trim. A couple of dollars for plastic to cut out polka dot templates. Used pieces of old sheet-rock to patch holes in the walls, so well under $200 for everything. Turned a closet into a little reading room. There are some before shots taken before I bought the house.

Great room! How tall is the bed frame? And how tall are your walls before the slant? »

What Houzz contributors are saying:

AFTER: There are two other bedrooms on the main floor of the house, but O'Hagan saw the attic's potential as a perfect hideaway for her girls. "The stairs are really steep but manageable," she says. "This suits my daughters fine, as they're too steep for the dog to get upstairs and eat their stuff."

added by Shawn Gauthier to Look Up to the Attic for a Playful Kids' Bedroom

Warm with texture. Kids' rooms can be playful spaces, so have fun exploring with patterns. “Fun patterns and textures can add a lot to a space,” says Umansky. The rainbow-colored rug in this spirited attic bedroom complements a polka dot two-tone pattern on the wall.

look similar to the height and depth we would work with. An door to an outdoor roof deck at the end? Bath tub in front and centre overlooking 3 sisters? Room in eaves for grandkid beds or storage?
