This Kmart cubby house hack is inspiring incredible decorating results!

For under $200 Mums are making their kids’ cubby dreams come true. - by Diana Moore
  • 28 Dec 2017

It’s sweeping social media like wildfire. Not only are kids’ dreams coming true, this Kmart cubby house selling for under $200 is being completely transformed by Mums and Dads all over with a little paint, a handful of inventiveness and a lot of interior decorating brilliance.

We took to Instagram for a round up of the most inspired makeovers and were amazed by how stunning the transformations were!

Mums and Dads everywhere have painted walls and preened windows, sourced hardware for doors and details, sewed curtains and grown gardens to dress up the little homes in style.

A welcome mat completes many a picture and the lucky recipients are from all accounts, universally delighted.
