I saw a post from @younghouselove a few months ago with a “homework room makeover” and knew I had to do something similar once we got into our new house. It’s so nice to have a place for all of their books and craft supplies, and to do their homework in as they get older.

Desks: I was originally going to get the same desks from Ikea from the original YHL post, but that just didn’t make sense in the age of COVID. I got these Target desks instead and they were so easy to put together (less than 10 mins, it’s just attaching legs) and look really nice and sturdy for the price.
Bookshelves: I used this Sauder Pogo Boom/Toy Organizer that I have had for years and would highly recommend (I can’t believe it has lasted through two moves considering the price), and an Ikea piece that used to be our pantry.
Cube Organizer: I am using this Ikea cube organizer and wicker baskets (that I already owned) to keep all the art supplies organized. You can also get a similar organizer from Target and similar baskets from Wayfair.
Rug: I got this rug at Home Goods for only $60 and I’m obsessed. For a similar 5×7 rug under $100, check out these options: nuLoom at Home Depot, Mark & Day, and Wayfair.
