Awesome DIY Target & Starbucks Themed Playroom for Kids

Milwaukee mom, Renèe Leann, knew how much her daughter loved shopping at Target and decided to use that as her theme for Ariah’s playroom.

And what does most every Target store have inside?  

A Starbucks, of course!

Target Playroom Details

For the Target store, Renèe began by repurposing a Melissa and Doug shopping center in order to make the main counter. Plastic shelving helps hold stock the store, along with Target themed signage and a matching shopping cart, even a bag for shopping needs and a name tag for Ariah, who is also employee of the month.

All the intricate Target store details make this playroom soooo adorable!

Starbucks Playroom Details

The Starbucks counter is made from a cube storage unit, with inexpensive wood and flooring added to it. Renèe painted the rest to match typical Starbucks coloring and logos. There’s even Starbucks’ drinks which she made with plastic cups, paint, caulk, and puffy paint!

How Did this Genius Mom Create This Awesome Target Play Room?

All the details are there, thanks to Renèe’s graphic designer sister.  She created the logos, price tags, menus, sale signs, and wall decor to make the store theme complete.  

A friend even made little Ariah a Starbucks’ apron for dress-up.
