You asked about removing the built-in old desk. I say remove desk which looks dated and takes up real estate and take down the wall between kitchen and family room. The area will appear so much larger with an open floor plan. If you need storage for the kids that you'll miss from the old desk, you can always get a boxed one with cubbies.

My suggestion is to KEEP KEEP KEEP the shelving unit. You are going to need this area to stay sane throughout the years you are raising your kids. I’m not kidding I’m speaking from experience. I tore one out and ended up having to purchase things to put everything in and then things were strung out all over the place. At least this way it is all contained. I promise you won’t regret it. You can’t do away with having to have all of this stuff throughout the school years and it will come in handy as an easy way for the kiddos to help keep things organized and put away. And honestly you may be over it but it really is a beautiful place to display and SO SO PRACTICAL. Paint it white to change it up some. That will give it a fresh feel for you but my suggestion is to KEEP IT.

Although it would be nice to have the flow from the kitchen to the living room I would paint it white because you actually use it. If you didn’t use it I’d be all for tearing it out. It’s a good place to store children’s books, puzzles and crafts. It’ll be a good study area as they grow up too so I would say keep it in and paint it. 🤗 Or you could take it out and eventually do a study room for the kids when they get older or you could add desks and computers to the play room

Also... i feel like if you knock it down you might as well knock that whole wall down if you could. Maybe put A big dining table there or something.

that couch looks so comfortable yet so much work! We’ve had fabric couches but with dogs found it’s so much better switching to leather! So easy to wipe down especially when they get muddy outside! But we also live in the south so I’m sure fabric is much cozier in snowy weather!❤️

Paint white for sure. It will add character to the room and blend in a lot more. If you got rid of it you would have to find new storage for all that stuff that you have easy access to right now. It will also be great for the kids when they get older for homework and projects. I think once its white it will look totally transformed and you will love it!

For whether to keep the desk or not- I say knock it all down, but put in built in cabinets or shelving along the wall (between the sliding door and that window in your dining area) that are similar to your kitchen cabinets so it matches well.

Just a tip for getting the covers back on easier...turn the cover inside out and shove your hand inside the cover (you should be touching the exterior of the cover) put your hand in the corner and grab the cushion. Repeat to the other corner and then you should be able to just easily pull the cover over the remainder of the cushion.

I have a couch similar to this and haven’t ever considered pulling the stuffing out of the back pillows to wash the covers.

I have an ikea ektorp sectional. It’s still a lot of work to wash it. Every individual cushion has a cover, as well as the big one that covers the frame. The only difference is the back cushions are one solid piece instead of the fluff that you have. However, the cushion inserts for those back cushions tear very easily. Two of mine have to go in trash bags like yours because the fluff goes everywhere.
