If it was solely up to me, I would make it into a craft,wrapping, sewing room. I loved the playroom post but for us, Lo's toys are distributed in different areas or centers in a few rooms and I like it that way. loveisstrange on "If you had an extra room in your house, what would you use it for?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-had-an-extra-room-in-your-house-what-would-you-use-it-for#post-933518 Mon, 15 Jul 2013 17:33:45 +0000 loveisstrange 933518@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Craft/sewing room!

We have our huge wardrobe in there, a sofa bed for guests, about 300 books all up the walls, our household filing and my craft stuff (plus a mini fridge and coffee maker for late night feeding). I don't know where all that will go when our baby outgrows the tiny boxroom nursery and needs that room.... So if I had another spare room I'd use it for a childs room and keep my spare room!

I knew I really wanted a first-floor playroom, so I only looked at floor plans that could accommodate that. On the second floor, our extra room is a guestroom/office combo. (We originally had enough space to have them separate, but what was going to be DH's office is now going to be a nursery for LO#2 ... whoops!) mamimami on "If you had an extra room in your house, what would you use it for?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-had-an-extra-room-in-your-house-what-would-you-use-it-for#post-932863 Mon, 15 Jul 2013 14:49:58 +0000 mamimami 932863@https://boards.hellobee.com/ A live-in nanny! It would be the same price or cheaper than our live-out nanny. But we just don't have the space... we use the room that SHOULD be available for that, for storage. lamariniere on "If you had an extra room in your house, what would you use it for?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-had-an-extra-room-in-your-house-what-would-you-use-it-for#post-932855 Mon, 15 Jul 2013 14:48:57 +0000 lamariniere 932855@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Currently my office, which is quite spacious, doubles as a playroom and guest room.

We have my stepkids in the summer. They are in LO's nursery now and he (and all of his stuff) is in our room. That works now because he is 12 weeks old but will get more difficult in the future! I'd also love a craft room/office/reading nook/place to put a treadmill! :) I just need a big house! cascademom on "If you had an extra room in your house, what would you use it for?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-had-an-extra-room-in-your-house-what-would-you-use-it-for#post-932848 Mon, 15 Jul 2013 14:47:44 +0000 cascademom 932848@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I'd love two other rooms: another room for another baby and maybe a guest room or workout room. With a guest room, it would give MIL cause to visit, so maybe better without one. plantains on "If you had an extra room in your house, what would you use it for?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-had-an-extra-room-in-your-house-what-would-you-use-it-for#post-932843 Mon, 15 Jul 2013 14:47:08 +0000 plantains 932843@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We have a den that we currently use as an office/library because DH was againstt he plyaroom idea, but Mrs Yoyo's room is making me reconsider. deactivated_account on "If you had an extra room in your house, what would you use it for?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-had-an-extra-room-in-your-house-what-would-you-use-it-for#post-932840 Mon, 15 Jul 2013 14:46:45 +0000 deactivated_account 932840@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I'd love a workout room, an office or a guest bedroom. I would take any of those! I have a two bedroom condo, and the second bedroom has been EMPTY since we purchased it three+ years ago. I'm hoping to make it a nursery soon enough!
