“We just moved into a new house that has an urban look to it and my daughter is turning 11 and we decided to give her a cool room,” said Heather Enright.
Most notably so! Check out what the Enright family did for their daughter out in Ashburn, Virginia. They bought eight Penco Invincible II gym type lockers from us here at SchoolLockers.com, and found a truly awesome way to use them in their daughter’s room at home...
Yes, this is an ACTUAL client of ours who when asked, shared her story with the guys who sold her those lockers--not a fictional character made up to sell lockers. These lockers are actually placed in this real teenager's room! They look AWESOME, don't they?!
“She actually keeps a lot of her uniforms for softball in the locker, and a lot of her clothes and then a lot of her medals and trophies and books—we shut them all up,” laughs Enright when we asked her about what her daughter uses the lockers for.
This is a simply PERFECT way to use a new locker in your kid’s room…or perhaps a mud room, laundry room, garage or basement game room. It makes cleaning easier and keeps things looking good—and organized. And of course, makes storing things just about as simple as it can be when it comes to storing items.
“It was very well received and she thinks she has the coolest room ever, all because of the lockers,” adds Enright who was nothing but pleased about the look of the new gym lockers and having made this order with us. Her daughter was nothing but excited about having them in her room!
So if you are out there wondering where the Enright Family got the idea to put lockers in her daughter’s room; understand that many ‘DIY’ ladies are finding some great ideas via magazines, online blogs to see the many uses for a gym locker, or any other locker for that matter—used or new.
“I actually think I got the idea from seeing old ones on Pinterest,” said Enright.
Now that one girl has the ‘coolest room’ in all of Virginia; Enright’s other daughter is thinking about doing the same and finding new uses for lockers for her room.
“Oh she was excited to see it, and now my other daughter wants some,” said Enright with a laugh.
Interesting enough, she also told us they just ordered some shelves for these gym lockers from our sales rep Gregg so their daughter can keep her sweatshirts and clothes in these as well as her softball uniforms and assorted ‘knick-knacks.’
Lockers in a teenager's room can, in fact, be pretty cool!
Our express thanks to the Enright Family for showing our followers how a new gym locker in your favorite colors can add functionality and fun to a teenager’s room. We look forward to perhaps providing another set of lockers to your other daughter’s room in the future if she so desires.
Thank you again for sharing your locker story and photos with us. And for doing so, we will be sending you a small ‘Barbie-sized’ locker for your daughter, or you, to keep some of your tiny keepsakes as well.
