Closet Play House!

by Robin on February 26, 2012

We finished the playhouse!

Remember, it started in the closet of our granddaughter’s bedroom! It was The Husband’s idea because I wanted their bedroom to be so much fun!

I wanted to put up step by step instructions for you…but The Husband is ornery when it comes to giving me details about his process. He heads to The Home Depot for an hour and comes home with a car full of supplies and I swear it’s like magic…everything just comes together!

He made a Dutch Door…I decided to use the custom Behr Ultra (Paint with Primer) color that I’ve used here and there  all over the house! (Posts about my love affair with Behr Ultra HERE)

Added cedar shingles…

Come on inside!

 There are a few shelves and a little oven for our girls…

The Husband…aka: Pop Pop made the cutest little stove.

Elliot loves to peek out of this window…

 All the baby girls love the play house…

Elliot…

Lucy Jean…

Hartley…

Sweet Baby-Girl Finley’s too itty-bitty to join in right now, but it won’t be long…

The girls had a little play time last week…and Hartley decided to get even with Lucy Jean for all the times LJ pulled her hair.

And Elliot made some lunch!

The little girl’s and I love the play house…The Husband’s my hero :)

(Even though he told me yesterday that I MUST STOP with the projects for awhile. All I said was: ” How hard would it be for “us” to bead-board the kitchen ceiling?” ~ It was just a question!!!)

~Have a playful day my friends~

So cute and so fun! When I was a little girl, my uncle made a similar house in the basement of their home. It was so much fun to play in!
You did a fantastic job!

It is soooo cute!! I’m sure you stay up there when your granddaughters are at your house now. :) How fortunate you are to have such a handy husband. Bead boarding the kitchen ceiling sounds grand!! I would love to have my kitchen and dining room ceilings bead boarded. :)

This is precious!! How privileged are your grandbabies to have their own playhouse?! The cedar shingles are the perfect finishing touch!

this is so adorable! i think you should submit it to your county’s magazine as a DIY spring project. the editor would probably eat it up!

Love, love, love it! You are so very creative and talented, and SO is the husband! I’m in awe of your energy and ability to get a project finished so it can be enjoyed. I think the girls will have years of memories and enjoyment with you, my friend. The girls would love to come play too…even Hannah, who says that this looks like something straight out of a magazine! xoxo

That is fabulous, Robin! You and your husband must be a match made in heaven to come up with that beautiful construction and actually, well, construct it! Oh, and those girls are darling, and so are their names. I ever I have another girl, I just may have to name her Lucy Jean!
