Creating a Dog Fort Under the Stairs with Wallpaper + Decor

This may be my all-time favorite house project to date! When my husband and I moved into our new home we immediately envisioned this crawl space under the stairs as a dog fort. We put a dog bed in there and they started going in there to nap! A wallpaper company called Walltrendz reached out and asked if I wanted to collaborate on Instagram in exchange for wallpaper and I immediately knew we had to make this dog fort even better!

You can see the full video reveal here, I am so happy with how it turned out!

The Dog Fort Details

I started the project by painting all the trim in the fort and doorway a pretty deep navy blue paint color. The wallpaper was an easy choice once I found this fun black and white pattern dog print! From there I found some light blue pillows, these custom pillows with my dog’s names on them, and this cute dog toy basket.

I decided the walls needed a little more, so I found some picture frames to hang on the wall and created a dog fort sign with these supplies! I finished the look off with a dog bone “door mat” (which is actually a food bowl mat) and viola it was done!

My dogs are obsessed with this space and so are we! I can not wait to do more fun projects like this!
