Heck, yeah. There's no reason to keep a formal living room if you don't use it. Definitely utilize your rooms in a way that fits your life.

Yes indeed -- a wonderful plan!

Use every inch of your space -- to the best use at the time!! :)

Please post pics of your project! :)

Oh, I just was looking at a blog this am that did this.

Here is a link that might be useful: converting dining room to office

thank you soooooo much, I needed that push, I put my set in the living room today , and when I play with the other stuff in the room a little I will post pics, Never wanted another house with formal rooms but we love the location, its hard to find houses here up for sale because a lot of the houses have been passed down, can't wait to finish playing, lol

Yep. Our formal dining room is a library/office/homework room. Haven't regretted it once!

We converted ours to a playroom. It is used daily now. Best decision!
