We are moving into a house rental for at least a year. The baby's room has a dormer that pitches from the ceiling to the floor, and it is the length of one of the entire walls. Does anyone have any suggestions on how we might utilize this space best? Is there a way to upload a photo on here? Any advice is much appreciated.
Thank you.
Thank you.

Is it big enough for the changing table or a small shelving unit that would have bins on it for clothes, diapers, etc.? You could also use the vertical space for pictures.

Hi Allison1888,
The last thing you should set in a dormer is a changing table. Dormers have windows, and windows have glass. If you changed diapers, you know how babies love to move and kick
So, it is extremelly unsafe and dangerous for a baby
Let me know if you have additional questions

sorry, perhaps i wasnt clear in my description. there isnt a window in it. its just an entire solid wall a slanted ceiling that slants all the way down from the roof to the floor. i couldnt really hang anything on it bc its such a steep angle to the floor. i was thinking of just placing some furniture there, but then it really wouldnt be backed by a flat wall so to speak, it would just have that empty space behind it. dont know why they even designed the space like that, seems like such a waste.
