Room shuffle, part one million

 I have often joked that this house is like one big room of requirement, and this sentiment came true again over the weekend as we finally reshuffled bedrooms to give the boys their own. And! We did this for almost zero dollars.

We spent

$80 on paint

$60 on lamps and an end table

$75 on extra bedding

$80 on 2 twin beds from FB marketplace

(But then I sold a bunch of old clothes to Plato's Closet for $50 and we made $20 on Harry's old bunk bed).


Coop's room, boob light and all: (yes there are 2 TVs because what if you are doing a flight simulation over the ocean and need to also watch a show?) (I have already taken a Zoom call in there and can confirm it is perfect and very quiet).








Jack's room (the first time in his entire life that he has had his own room!!) (yes there is vinyl on the floor-- this was our playroom when we built the house) (yes there is tape on the floor-- Jack and Harry made a squash court a few years ago).









When Harry is home for the summer, I think Jack and Coop will move back in together, but we'll see. Maybe we will get a pull out sofa for the family room and someone can sleep out there? Keeping our options open for sure, and I have no doubt that the house will present a magically perfect solution when the time is right.
