Here are a few updated pictures of the dining room. It's still a work in progress....thanks for all of your suggestions!
I bought this waxy way cool box while we were at the Crayola Factory
(and NO for those of you wondering...the "factory" did NOT smell like a box of crayons! They don't even MAKE them there for pity sake! I was soooooo disappointed!!!)
Instead of baskets on top of the hutch I put the crayon crate and added a stack of books
I've added books to display on the table. I plan on switching them out every so often or with a season change, etc.
The kids are really enjoying their space. I do need to get some type of placemat for JK. He doesn't stay on the paper and I'm starting to hyperventilate each time he asks to color!

They don't make the crayons there? Did they show you how they were made? I remember seeing them being made. Maybe I just have a poor memory. Going once is enough. I do remember that!
The room looks great!
That crayon crate is awesome! I wish I had decorating sense.. I do not... i stink at it.. we dont even have curtains... although the asthma people will tell me its a good thing when they come out on Tuesday.
Oooh, that box is really neat!

Love the crate! Looking good.
Looks good...one quick idea. You could do a glass top on the table and then put cool pictures, maps, kids' art underneath. That would make it color-safe for JK.
Where is the Crayola factory? Is it a good field trip?
I hope the little ones don't climb the cabinet to get the crayons down ;)
Love the crate! The room is really looking good. The urn on the table is awesome. Where's it from? Good job, like always.
What a crafty idea. I love the original crayon crate from the early 1900's...that's so awesome. It looks like that dining room is on it's way into a library. I love it!!
I love the crate Too!
What a nice change and I love the box and crayons in the urn!! Great idea!!
