Playhouse Makeovers are the new Upcycling Trend for Kids

playhouses revamped

When new, these playhouse can retail for a couple of hundred dollars, but after they’ve sat outside in the sun and the kids have long lost interest in their faded plastic playhouse, upcycling and giving it a little renovation can add life to the play area.

Add some pot plants and home styling features so the kids can feel like it’s really their house. They will be outside playing for hours and will be the envy of kids in their neighborhood.
