SOMETIMES it's the simplest things in life that bring most joy to children.
A mum has revealed how her dad has transformed a cupboard under the stairs into a "cool" den for his grandsons - and it only cost £50.
Posting in group 'DIY On A Budget Official', the woman explained how the dead space in her home had been put to better use.
In images shared online, the former storage space had been given a cosy makeover.
It now features a dolls house, books and cushions, as well as white and black boards for each of her sons.
Outside the den, the creative granddad had built in windows, used wallpaper to create a brick effect, and gave the door a silver knob as well as a number eight door number.
