Homeschool School Room Makeover with the Original Scrapbox Dreambox
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 сен 2024
- I used to homeschool in a tiny little room barely big enough for a table though in all fairness, we usually ended up doing school at the kitchen table. Small space homeschooling was hard. Our books were strewn, homeschool supplies got lost and ruined from being carted all over the house. So when I stumbled on the Original Scrapbox Dreambox I saw homeschool supplies where everyone had their sewing and art supplies. This could work!
Step 1 was to pitch my husband, to convince him that this could work and devise a plan of where and how. We decided to redo our entire basement in order to make a functional space to homeschool and store all of our supplies and with the help of the Dreambox, our dream became reality.
I am so thankful to the Original Scrapbox for sending us the Dreambox to show you guys and stay tuned for part II of the video where I take you on a tour inside!
THE DEETS:
My referral link: homeschoolon.co...
Coupon code: HSON (gets you $100 off)
The desks:
The drawer systems are from IKEA, they are the ALEX drawers in white. The table legs are from there, the chalkboards are magnetic and from there, as well as the desk chairs for the kids (which we love and highly recommend).
The desk tops I made myself with just 2x12s that we biscuit joined together, sanded, and stained. At this point they are just resting on top of the desks, I'm still deciding how I want to secure them but so far it works.
The walls and ceiling in the school room look like shiplap but were a lot cheaper because we used tongue and groove pine. It was a ton of work, but we did it ourselves and didn't have to wait/pay for drywall so that was why we did it. We painted it all white and added 6 lights for lots of lighting.
The rug is from wayfair.
The tins on the desks are from Amazon and I'm in love

The mint colored door leads to our spare bedroom as well as our school library. We have 3 cube bookshelves filled with books that are easily accessible for our school day. The room with the Dreambox is just around the corner and also has a couch and will eventually have a TV and our instruments to be a practise area for music, TV/media room/reading corner, etc.
My desk is from Wayfair, as well as my yellow desk chair which my son broke. Don't lean forward or you're going to tip!
I think that is everything! Oh, the chair in the corner is just a frame with some leather over it. I found it randomly at our local Rona hardware store. I am debating making a large chalkboard and putting it on the wall by my desk but I also don't want to cover y beautiful walls more than I need to :o
Thank you to my amazing friend, Ruth-Ann, who came and helped me set up and assemble all the desk drawers and the Dreambox. Thanks to her hubby who came and helped mine with all the pine, the drop ceiling, amongst many other things, thanks to my bro-in-law who put in our lights, to my husband for not killing me when he found out the space I had intended for it in the school room wouldn't work and we had to do the whole basement (hehe), and a HUGE thanks to The Original Scrapbox for sending us the Dreambox to show you guys. I can sit and stare at it and be in my PJs with a disaster house and still feel accomplished, it's magical ;)
I understand why they call it a dream box it’s beautiful and could literally make our homeschool dreams of organizing come true! Sadly with my husband being in the military and us choosing to keep me home to school our children we just can’t afford this... probably ever, but I love dreaming and I love seeing what you have done with your homeschool room! I love how organized and clean cut everything is! Good job!!! ❤️🌿 God Bless you and what you are doing to speak truth into people’s lives and help so many others with their homeschool journey! I love that you stand on truth when you talk and and you don’t lighten your faith to please others but show how strong your faith and convictions are bring others to the Father!
In this day and age it’s so easy to want to praise the Lord but not stand on truth but here you are doing both! ❤️🌿
Wow girl I just use the kitchen table
Your school room is class! Such a beautiful and simple space. So much light. Amazing job. Kudos to your husband for embarking on a room makeover project (these things can feel so daunting, can't they?) Looking forward to new videos. Have a blessed day. ☘️
I have been saving up for ages for my 3 youngest homeschool kids room age 7, 7 and 4 and it was finally done, the kids enjoy learning more now and it looks beautiful!
I remember you saying how much you wanted one of those! That is so exciting! Congratulations on the new schoolroom and that DREAMBOX!!!
HOLY GUACAMOLE! Now that's organization! Beautiful room and schooling space :) Gob Bless your gorgeous family!
I literally gasped when you opened the dream box!!
Love it!!! So clean and beautiful. I can't wait till we remodel our basement and we get a bigger better school room!!!
Wow, that looks like an excellent schooling environment, and that DreamBox is impressive. When we finished off our basement, we were able to plan a homeschooling room as part of that project as well. We were fortunate enough to be given an old kitchen cabinet display from a lumberyard that worked excellent for storage in our school area, but it’s not quite as impressive as that Dreambox.
Thanks for sharing and thanks for the ideas.
Love it. I have never seen such a thing. My goodness, that’s amazing and your schoolroom is equally amazing. I love a clean and organized space. Way to go mama 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾😘😘💕
I LOVE it! 😍 So organized! The dedicated homeschool space would be awesome...we use the kitchen table, but this is my dream!
“I’m going to paint it white this weekend.” Husband paints it white. You speak my language 😂
AHHHHH! The price!
Looks amazing, but a little unattainable for a family with one stay at home educator. And to finance a cupboard? No thanks. We have never been in debt for ANYTHING. Not about to start for an elaborate cupboard.
Definitely looks amazing but this seems more like a purchase for a retired person who is a Creative Memories addict distributor lol
....i have never seen this or heard of this before. I need this. Thank you!
I love the desk with the drawers!! I have five children too and this our first year homeschooling! I’m super nervous but your channel has helped so much!!
It looks great! Congratulations!🎉🎈 You should have a “New School Room Party!”
Gorgeous homeschool space!
You go girl! Love the new room
You have a scrap/dream box!! So jealous 🤣 it looks amazing! Amazing job 👏
Never in a million years would I be able to afford that😂😂
Where did you get the desk with drawers?
So cool! Would love to see what you put in every space and how big the actual table part is! Thanks! :-)
That's cool you have a nice room. I tried to do it but with my kids is hard .my homeschool happens like all over the house 😀
Would you mind telling me where you perchance the chairs, desk, desk tops? Storage depots on the desk? Thank you 😊
Super cute!!!
i saw this dream box a while back and was wondering if it would fit in our small space, it looks really deep but so cool! tfs!
What are those little drawers that are holding up your desk?
Hi I was just wondering where is part 2. Thanks
What stain did you use for the desk? Its beautiful and I was thinking of doing the same thing?
Nice!
