A Cute Playhouse From Ebay?
We had a great corner in our backyard that we thought would be a great spot for a playhouse. My hubby is really handy, but the time it would take for him to build a playhouse would be hard for him to find. He went on Ebay and actually found a playhouse already built - he couldn't even buy all the wood and supplies for the price that he paid for this playhouse. The hard part? Having to go and get it! He rented a flat bed truck, got four of his buddies to help him, and picked it up from someone's backyard!
Then, he placed it on some large pavers that he had setting up in the corner area of our yard - it's the perfect spot because it's under our large, old avocado trees where it's shady and relaxing!
After much cleaning and sprucing it, it's now a darling home. He used some left over pieces of trex-type decking for a little porch on it and I painted it with $5 mistinted paint from Home Depot. Isn't it cute?

Before any paint!
Bringing the playhouse in on a flatbed truck!
This Ebay find was worth it - the men lifted it off and set it in place.
The inside after it was also spruced up!

Adorable for kids pretend play. I'd love to find a deal like that for a tree house for my son.
