I just finished this little playhouse for my “Grand’s” today. No pattern. Just thinking; what do I want on the house, how do I get it there, etc. I’m very happy with the results. Oops....guess I could have cropped the photos first.....sigh.....

And it is a “working” mail box. :-)

Oh what fun ... your Grands will love it!!!

This could be a project that will never end by adding more to it, as ideas come to you.

How about a tree or two?
Sun and clouds in the sky?
Birds and other critters?

Yes, I thought of a few other things.....like a car, a fire department, a police department, school bus, etc, etc. I decided it would be never-ending and my canvas was not big enough....hahaha.

I did satisfy my childhood memories though. When I was a kid :-) my mom bought a washer/dryer (combination). (late 1950’s). In thoses days the appliances came in cardboard boxes. Yes, it was a pretty big box. I got to have the box. I cut out the windows and door. I colored the outside with flowers and on the inside I colored “inside house things”. (Can’t say what now). Anyway, I played in my “house” for several years. I kept thinking about my playhouse and decided to make one for my Grand’s. I hope they will have as much fun with this version as I did with my box and have great memory’s of “going to grandmas house”. My play house is one of the very best memories of my childhood.

So clever! I wish I had thought of that when my grandkids were young. In my day, we just threw blankets over the table, but this is so much cuter. I would love to make one that looks like a tree house.
