Playhouse Makeover


One of my favorite projects has been Little Tikes playhouse Makeover. My mom found this gem for me on a local facebook "Beg, Barter, Buy & Sell" group for only $20.00!

These groups are a great way to find awesome deals AND be able to see the profile of the person you intend to purchase from. Unlike craigslist, you are able to make a judgement call on whether or not they are a total sideshow or not. Safety first, people! ;)

With a little bit of Valspar Plastic Paint, we turned the dirty and unkempt playhouse into THIS:
The entire project took about 2.5 hours from start to finish. Since I decided that I wanted a two tone effect, I had to blue tape everything!  Pain in the rear end, but totally worth it. Mr. Awesome and I plan to make her a concrete paver foundation and possibly put a few flowers around it in our backyard! I will keep you all updated on the progress! If anyone else completes a project like this, I'd love to see it!

  1. Did you take the windows and door off to paint? If so how?

    1. Yes, we did take them off. On our particular playhouse, they just popped out with a little force from Mr. Awesomepants. Hope that helps!

  2. How long did your paint last?
