Any suggestions on windows for an outdoor playhouse?
I'm redoing an outdoor playhouse, looking for suggestions for removable windows. Basically something to keep rain and snow out of.
Hi Christie. I made an umbrella base several years ago. I mixed up some concrete and poured it into a large flower pot. I put a gutter in the center and held it in place with masking tape. Waited 24 hours till dry. Remove the tape. I used this base the next day. I left it as is. I put it under my patio table and slid the pole right into the gutter. But you could also remove the pot with scissors. The concrete could be painted if you like. Good luck Christie.
Here's a great one for you Christie!
