Under the Stairs Playhouse
I built this playhouse under the stairs coming down into the basement.
It’s in the playroom and I wanted to create some sort of facade that would look like the entrance to a whimsical something or other rather than just this boring old wall. After much discussion, my daughter and I decided a playhouse was the way to go. The inside has cork paneled walls to hang up art and swim team ribbons and the roof hinges up for extra storage.

Amazing, amazing, amazing!! We have an unfinshed basement with a space under the stairs and a small door already framed out. I am so doing this!!! Thank you for sharing this! Do you have any pictures of the inside–like the area under the stairs–doesn't it narrow down? I can't figure out what to do with that space or if I should do anything. [email protected]
OK I just found your blog that closet clubhouse thingy WHAT A FANTASTIC IDEA! What a creative mind you have. Glad I found you
Wow, that's the coolest thing ever! I'm sure your daughter will totally love it!
Ooops, she did it again! I cannot let my daughter see this or she will beg for one! And if she does, you are coming to build one in my house, right? I am loving the shutters you put up in another room, I have done that in my daughter's room. Hope you can check me out!
Right now you are hands down the COOLEST mommy ever!! A-mazing!
