Playhouse



So our new house has this awesome 2 story cottage playhouse - but it needs some work, so this is the "before" picture. It has a broken window and was basically a bug and spider habitat for a few years. And weeds all around in the pavers.
First assignment was vacuuming it out. It has carpets on the floors (main floor the carpet is laid on top of brick pavers) and upstairs I had never seen quite so many fly/bee/wasp carcasses, but they all vacuumed up and it is no longer scary to go in. Thank goodness

Next was blocking the window. Eliza helped me tape up some plastic. 

There is lots to do- I am planning to let the girls make a lot of design decisions, so it may end up looking worse, but at least they will feel included.
