"I did a custom jigsaw cut on the top so now [the desk] sits nice[ly] and touches the wall on its entire length," he wrote.

"The right side had to modified ... (since the desk top height is over 1 inch higher now to allow space for the cabinet to slide without the legs touching the carpet, or the top from touching the desk top underside). I had to use some of the leftover pieces and rip a new support for the right side," the father continued.

And just like that, the child's secret room was created.

"Inside, looking towards the boys room," the father captioned the above photo, explaining that he got an LED strip light from Amazon.

"It does something like 16 different colors and has a remote," he continued.

With hardboard on the ceiling and everything painted white, the father spray-foamed and caulked up all the leftover seams and cracks.

While the room isn't quite finished yet, noting that it will be decorated "properly," the father said his son loves his new secret space. Obviously.
