Mum transforms cupboard under the stairs into amazing playroom for her girls complete with tiny window & cosy cushions

A MUM told how she made a 'little hiding spot' for her girls - by transforming the space under her stairs into a playroom.

Carly Jones shared the amazing before and after snaps on a Facebook page.

She then told Fabulous: "It was filled with junk before!"

She revealed how before converting the room it was 'filled with junk'.

But afterwards, thanks largely to her hard work, it a secret space for her girls to play around in.

She wrote on the Extreme Couponing and Bargaining UK Group : "Made a little hiding spot for my girls under the stairs."

Before pictures show the under the stair space filled with crates and cat litter.

But after snaps reveal how clever Carly created faux brickwork and even installed a cute window.

She then created a curtain entrance, shelves, fairy lights, a lamp and papered the wall.

She put up shelves for her girls' books.

People were really impressed.

One woman said: "Absolutely love it, great idea, well done!";

Another added: "Magical! As a child i had an under stairs den . A lot more basic than this. old feather quilts, feather pillows my books and a very unsafe old railway lantern... filled with paraffin!"

And this mum revamped her stairs into an incredible waterfall mural after her 11-year-old ruined the carpet and it only cost £21.

Plus this mum turned her ‘awful’ wooden panelling into a family photo wall – but some blast it for looking ‘common’.

Meanwhile this mum uses offcuts found in a skip and bargains on eBay to transform her loft bedroom into study and beauty desk.
