... a cubby house!
Our new cubby house. |
We checked out quite a few different (and expensive!) options before Neil found the 'Malibu Mansion' from Design A Cubby. He took the girls with him to have a look at it. Given that Grace's favourite colours are pink and yellow, he didn't really stand a chance!
He purchased the display model, which meant it was a little cheaper, was available before Christmas, and was already painted. So it was a win for everyone!

The cubby house was delivered in pieces, and when Grandpa arrived the week before Christmas he helped Neil to construct it. They laid it on a bed of crushed rock to create a level base, because there are a lot of surface roots from the nearby pine tree. I decorated it with some bunting Mum and I made for Grace's rainbow birthday party a couple of years ago.

We've moved the toy kitchen and some little chairs in so far. I have ambitions of sewing some little curtains, and appliqueing a picture in an embroidery hoop to hang on the wall.
As soon as I get that done, I'll post some pictures of the cubby's interior.
I hope it's as cute as the outside!
Is that where I'll sleep :)
