As long as I can remember, I've been obsessed with building. My projects did not have to be on a grand scale, like my father (who added on to our family home continually for a good 15 years), but I dedicated time to my projects, concentrating on every little detail. One of the things I always wanted to work on was a treehouse or a playhouse. Although there were many forts built (and rather creatively, I might add) when our boys were younger, we never had big enough trees for a treehouse. So we built forts out of big boxes and sheets. One year, we really had a creative spark and built a teepee. Now, you can buy these online and they come in all kinds of varieties.
To this day though, I am drawn to the cuteness of the playhouse. Perhaps it's that everything is on a smaller scale (I was quite fond of dollhouses growing up), or maybe it's that they are usually inhabited by the cutest youngsters. Whatever it may be, I think they are adorable. Maybe someday I'll have a grand-daughter and she will get her very own playhouse. Hopefully, it looks a little like the one featured below. Kudos to Country Living Magazine for the adorable feature.
Until next time!
