5 Ways to Use Your Bonus Space

What will you do with your bonus room?

April 1, 2022

You have a bonus space and want to utilize the room to its fullest potential.  Neither another bedroom nor another family room is needed.  What are some of your options?

Homework Space

Now, in the age of virtual learning, home students tend to leave papers, binders and textbooks scattered around the house.  Your bonus room is the solution to reign in the madness.  Quiet and free of distractions (like TV and video games), set the room up with a table and a few comfortable chairs – throw in a bookshelf of school supplies – and it will become the perfect place for the kids to get to work.

Yoga studio

Your bonus room could become a complete oasis for centering yourself and working on your Eagle pose. Grab a few aromatherapy candles, your yoga mat, and hook up a blue-tooth speaker to play your favorite list of meditation music.  The bonus space is now your own studio.

Music room

Instruments can take up a lot of space.  Whether it is a piano, a set of drums, even a violin and stand can take up precious room in main living areas.  Plus – no matter how melodic the sound, sometimes it can be distracting if a budding (or even professional) musician practices or plays, the perfect reason to create a music room using your bonus room.

Teen hangout

Teens like their own space.  It is part of being a teen.  A bonus room can give them their own private space that they call their own.  Think about what your teens like – whether it’s a tv and gaming system, a book nook, or just a place to hang out with friends – and set them up!

Library

Buy some DIY shelfing, add seating and lamps, and create your own personal library.  It will be a wonderful place to escape to – cup of tea or coffee in hand – to not just enjoy a good book but have a few minutes of peace.
