What a wonder playhouse!  I love the bookshelves using the space between the studs.  Did you choose the interiror decorating yourself?

I hope those two beautiful little girls know how special their Daddy is!!!

I didn't read every step (sorry -- no time) so maybe you said about the cost of the plans.  I didn't see that cost reflected in your "rough breakdown".

Wonderful details!  Come and build one for my granddaughter?  I'll do the interior decorating.  LOL

My wife sez I need to build this for my granddaughter who is 3, but will be almost 4 if it takes me that long. Too cute! Rick n Cheryl

hopefully you could do it faster :-) it was kind of hard telling the kids too wait so long. Let me know if you take it on and I'll pass on any tips I can
