Play House Finished

The card table play house is officially finished and on its way to its new home. I almost hate to post photos because you have seen it all as I have worked on it for the last 6 weeks. 
It was so cold and windy but I wanted photos with some decent lighting so I braved the windchill before the snow came in Sunday.



This might have been one detail you didn't see. I made a couple pockets on the inside of one of the walls. So while the kids were playing they could hide their treasures.
And for the  top I went for simple straight roads without the center lines.

I gave up counting but there are at least 40 different fabrics somewhere in this play house. One thing I can guarantee is there will never be another one just like it. It is truly one of a kind. I hope the kids enjoy a few hours of play with the play house.

Now to start work on the play house for the twins.

    This is just adorable! I plan to make one for my two little grandsons--maybe a barn. Love your creativity. I've just scrolled through each of your posts, and I believe you did it without a pattern. Thanks for your details with helpful photos of your steps along the way. Have you heard if it's been received yet?
