This Part 19 of a series of a fair few posts, Part 1 (link here) gives an overview and the philosophy applied to the series – cheap, simple and fun.
Today we are making some more clutter, a see-saw and a play house.
A simple playhouse
First cut out the walls you need (I used some of the adhesive floor tiles, I bought for the project, you could use thick card)
These where the measurments I used (remember it is a playhouse
Cut coffee stirrers lengthwise (I did a mixture of halves and thirds) and then clan the walls, I did two windows and of course a door, just an outline doorframe really, Glue it onto the vinyl tiles.
Cut an angle on the backing so it is easier to fit
Put them on a base and glue them together (fill the gaps if there are any with a thin piece of coffeestirrer)
I then added some thick card as roof (note the fixing of the gap)
Glue on some detailing
For the See-saw, you again need some thin coffeestirrers
Cobble something together like that
Paint it up (note I addes some fine sand on top of the roof to give a faux roof felt feel)
Spend is still £24.42 in total as we just used coffee stirrers and some of vinyl tiles for the project.
More good stuff Per, love how you are coming up with so many things! Also, the angled cut you’ve been showing to attach the walls is great to consider – thanks!
Those look really good, Per! 🙂 Of course the see-saw could be used as a makeshift catapult/trebuchet!
