A couple of things I did to the front storage area. Added a simple broom holder and some ladder hooks for hanging the hose and power cords. Keeps them up and out of the way...

Got tired of the kids arguing over whether the bunk curtain should be opened or closed. So I cut it up and made them each their own! The bottom curtain looks whiter, but that's due to the light coming in thru the bunk window. It's the same fabric for each bunk.
