Cardboard love #5 ~ Cardboard town play houses

WELCOME to:

Living room Lane, where a small little red neighborhood has been newly developed. 

Come take a look.  

The key hole, peep hole, mailboxes, cardboard phone and flower boxes make these individual compact playhouses FULL of pretend play and fun. 

If you recall THIS post ~ then you remember the very large cardboard boxes I scored. I cut them in half and then I surprised the kids with their own little playhouse neighborhood and we together put in all the fun simple amenities. Come and see us as we paint the living room red and white. :) Simple fun!

 Visiting your neighbor is a high priority in this tiny town. 

Little key holes for keys.

Cardboard phones.

Cardboard phone and straw antenna. The kids made these on their own. 

They're held into place with some velcro strip.

We worked together on some pretty flowers and flower boxes. 

I walked into the living room and here they were watering their flowers. 

So made me smile. :)

Here are the flower boxes, blooming with color.

Now this is my favorite part... they are compact and easy to put aside and pull out again.  I don't have room to store them long-term but because they are so compact I am happy to store them like this for a bit...

 My kids have thoroughly enjoyed these simple little homes, major pretend play has been happening at our house!

Off I go ~  Our kids are on winter break here so tomorrow we are heading to 

Istanbul for a few days to visit friends. 

We are all super excited to get away and do something different. 

Well my friends that is the end of this very picture heavy post. 

Using what I have and this week it is ~ polka dotted cardboard!

In my west corner,
