Between finger-painted landscapes and crazy colorful collages, every little one has an inner artist just dying to create. With all that artistic energy waiting to be released, an art room is the perfect space for kids to get inspired. For DIY lover Asia from Fun at Home with Kids, an art room was always on her list of projects for artsy daughter S (and baby X). After several home DIY projects, including a whimsical playroom for her little ones, Asia and her husband embarked on creating a fantastically inspiring spot for creative play in their Seattle home. Check out Asia’s amazing room makeover (from a home gym, no less!) and get inspired!

Every great artist must share their work, and Asia's kids are no exception! For a decorative and economical way to display S and X's creations, Asia used thick black masking tape to frame the art and offset the crisp white walls. With walls covered in the little ones' favorite projects, inspiration is everywhere you look!
