Colour me playhouse




I've seen these little houses all over instragram, So when I spotted them in my local Aldi I just had to get one for the girls, I was torn between putting it away for Christmas or letting them have it now as you can tell I was far to excited and gave it to them now :) They still haven't finished colouring it in a little while after starting it, the house fell silent for an hour and a half I had a peek in the house and both girls were glued to the tele. All tho it's made from cardboard it has kept my girls super quiet. I got abit carried away and coloured some of it in but I had to stop or Daisie wouldn't have any left to do on her side it's just so much fun. It may end up in the bin soon with it being cardboard and my girls being like bulls in china shops or if bear will actually go in it will become her little house. This has to be the best £7.99 I've ever spent.

 Please excuse the bad quality photos I  grabbed them from my instagram

It's here....


After a little mix up when ordering, the girls playhouse is here!!!!
It turned up on the back of a truck in many pieces I don't know why but I expected a box or two, it was raining the day it arrived so some of the wood became bowed :( but was nothing we could work around. When it was being off loaded from the truck the guy bought over a slide which totally threw me as the playhouse I ordered didn't have a slide and it also wasn't listed as a cherry playhouse either but it is in fact the right one :) I checked the suppliers website and you can order it with a slide so I guess it was a great bonus.
One HUGE annoying thing about the packaging of the playhouse is you get stuff all packed up like the roof slats and the ladder slats now you would think that would be it? but oh no you get random bits for the underneath in with them :/ we thought that part was missing until we put the roof slats up and there it was but because the picture on the instructions was the complete playhouse and clearly the roofing you never would have guessed the flooring part was in there and of course doing it in order that package wasn't opened until last but hey ho the house is together,painted and had a home made railing put on it by my wonderful partner :) here's a picture of how it looks, I'm yet to add some finishing touches but you get the idea :)

Let the saving begin...



I received an email with this beautiful playhouse among other summer stuff in and needless to say I fell in love with it! I played around with my partner and said I was getting it expecting him to laugh & say no or something but he was like okay I'll help you save :) So we are now saving for this beauty! we had to sell the girls trampoline as our garden is pretty small so it was one or the other and they was well up for having a playhouse so saving has begun and with it only being £17O there's not a major amount to save up and we'd be silly not to buy it. Super excited to be able to order it! I've already planned whats going in it, what pattern I'd like on the curtains and what colour we are painting it. EXCITED!!!
