do you have a room you call a "playroom" a spice rack OR a feature wall?

[MaureenCognito]

if so: you lose

No
No
No

Although I would like a playroom, so I can have the lounge back.

I have a playroom, a nursery and three (count 'em) feature walls around the house.

I say poorly.

I have a dirty kitchen bin too and I don't care

We don't have a nursery. DS's room is known as the ratbaggery

I had a friend who once trilled "I don't know how I would live without our playroom!"
I don't have a play room.
My flat is about one twelfth the size of her house.
We don't hang out much nowadays.

Oh and I want a spice rack. A nice walnut one.

Oh actually I lie!! I have a test tube spice rack that was a wedding present. I forgot about it as it never gets used.

I don't think tere is anything wrong with a playroom though.

Spice racks are daft 70s showoffy things. Dried herbs and spices should be kept in a dark cupboard/drawer and in small quantities otherwise they lose their flavour and go off.

I've got 2 playrooms! I win!!

Loving this thread, time we had an update on twigs and pebblely shit.

People with play rooms DEMAND you remove your mum boots before entry

I win.... But have just moved house and do have a 6ft wide serving hatch from kitchen to dining room. It's amazing! As are the fake pink marble double basin arrangement in the bathroom and the huge 'brut aftershave box' green 80s fitted wardrobes in my bedroom.... . At least my house doesn't look like a page from the Next Directory though , well not one printed in the last 30 years at least

Play rooms = cream carpets and sofas and ocd

We have a play station room. It's supposed to be the dining room and does have a dining table in it

No feature wall or spice rack though

So
Maureen what are we supposed to call the room with all the children's crap in it?
I guess technically its the Dining room but as we've never had a dining table in there but it is chocker full of toys

I do have a spice rack though...it's in the larder

Caffeine- I love it!

No, no and no to OP.

Up thread someone mentioned family room. Uurgh. That's what they're called in Australia and I hate it. Both of ours are what I'd call living rooms as neither is formal.

I've never seen a feature wall here, but then bunting's only beginning to catch on.

Downstairs room was a playroom I guess. Now not. Had DD's desk, bookcase, computer, stuff, etc, in so more like a children's study really.

No spice rack - just have a shelf in a cupboard for herbs and spices.
And no feature walls.
No nursery either.

I have spice drawers on either side of the cooker and I store tea towels in there. (Don't want to store spices right next to the cooker). The other day I was looking at buying a spice rack because there isn't enough space it the cupboards and so the jam sugar sits on the counter...DH reminded me we have perfectly good Spice Drawers so now the top bit of a Tea Towel Drawer has spices in it. I keep forgetting they're there. Our food has been a lot less interesting this week.

I have a feature wall and my living room is gorgeous so ner

I have a dining room. Well, once upon a time it was a dining room.
DD remembers eating meals in there, but the table was shoved against the wall shortly after DS arrived.
Ds look bemused when I say something is "in the dining room". I have to qualify my instruction by adding "you know, the room with the toys in".

But it is not a playroom.

yes...and a music room...and cloakroom. Shoot me now!

We used to have a study full of all kinds shite - boxes of old documents, computer disks, tat, you name it. Then we had DS and simultaneously had the house renovated (tiny loo put into the boiler cupboard upstairs, study carpeted - instead of bare, gaping floorboards - and turned into "playroom"). The playroom does not have cream carpets, it has hardwearing, stain-resistant carpets and the same rather faded curtains the study had because new curtains are expensive. Our spice rack is screwed onto the inside of a kitchen cupboard, which was wasted space anyway, and I love it.

What competition are we in, by the way?

yes (but will be dc1 bedroom in a couple of years)
no
no
