Upper level Indoor Playhouse

Here is the colorful upper level of Indianna's indoor Playhouse.
 This is what you see above the railing through the opening.

 The table is tucked into the corner on the left side with room for five little guests to sit around.  You can also see the railing (so we have no accidental falls), and the curtain for some 'no boys allowed' tea parties.


On the right side is the ladder down to the lower level.  It has been extended up into the upper level to act as a railing and also so that the kids can easily step off and on while still hanging on.


Some tutorials you will see next week from this space include:
-flag bunting
-converting hallway light into chandelier
-chalkboard/fabric canvas art

Indoor playhouse

Do you remember at the beginning of the week I showed you this photo as one of the projects I would be working on this week? 


For my daughter's 4th birthday we created this two story indoor play house for her in the 40 sq ft toy closet off the playroom using left over building materials.
Here is the lower level.

 This is what you see in the doorway opening.  Of course we removed the doors in order to create this play space.

This is the left side.

And the right side. 

You can see on the right the ladder leading up to the second floor.  I am hoping to add a few little throw pillows for the sofa and the chair and I plan to make a braided rug for this space yet.

The mirror and the crib have been repainted, and I recovered the cushions on the small chair.  Lighting was an issue down in this space as the closet light is now blocked by the floor.  We added simple christmas lights to the perimeter of this space as they are not hot to touch in case little fingers go wandering.
                                                             
I will give you all the details for the starched wall decal next week.

Tomorrow I will show you the second level.
