How to make a Play Castle

Knights, princesses they all need a place to call home.  Today I’m sharing how to make this handy play castle.  It uses a card table to have make a sturdy structure and folds up into a tidy little bag when pretend time is through.  In the example I used slate OlY*Fun cloth but you can easily use Orchid or bubble gum to give it a more “fairy tale princess” feel.  Since I mad my Tee Pee more on the girly side – I felt that I owed my little boy a fun place to play of his own.

One of the great things about Oly*Fun is that you can easily draw and paint on it.  To give the castle a more stone like appearance I used a sponge, masking tape and two different paint colors.  I’m pretty pleased with the results.

 

I also loved how easy Die Cuts work with the cloth.  I pulled out my Sizzix Big Kick and was able to make flags that have a crest on them – pretty fun!

When I pulled out the castle to take some pictures I couldn’t keep my little boy out of it.  He KNEW it was his spot.  I have a feeling I will be putting up his castle often.  Fortunately the whole things folds up into a bag so I can easily store it in the front hall closet in between play time.
