I really thought I was onto something here 😂🎃
Should I leave it as it is? Or what should I change it to?

Seriously such a cool product and perfect for renters because it peels off walls too 🤯🙌

I honestly never questioned whether this would be too small for my kids. They were part of the design process from day 1, and we built it around what they wanted and how they actually play.
BUT then I posted it… and after hearing over and over that it was too small, I started questioning everything 😩 “Did I really just spend all that time and money building something they wouldn’t even use?!”
And then my kids reminded me why I built it in the first place. They play out here all the time, and they’ve shown me that it’s the perfect size for them ❤️
Now I just need to figure out how to keep the balls from flying over that hill 😂
I turned a picture frame into a SECRET storage cabinet and my kids LOVE hiding all their stuff in there! 👀
Here’s how I built it:
✔️Built a 1x3 pine frame with 2 shelves (screwed + glued corners)
✔️Added small wood blocks inside the picture frame so the hinges had a solid spot to mount.
✔️Screwed a scrap wood block (2x2) into wall studs, then hung the cabinet right on top…no drywall anchors needed but makes it so sturdy to hold everything.

Earlier mornings are officially here now that my oldest is in middle school, so I built this hidden picture frame cabinet to save our bedtime routine! 🤫
How I made it 👇
Built a shallow box to fit behind our frame using a 1x3, screws, hinges, and a catch magnet.
Filled the holes, sanded, and painted it to match.
Mounted it securely into the studs!
We keep our OLLY Kids Sleep gummies in here for whenever the kids are feeling too giddy at bedtime to be back in school 😴
Would your kids love a secret storage spot like this? 👇
