One of my favorite blogs Make and Takes has a crafty challenge going on right now. The girls and I decided it would be very fun to enter the contest and see "what we are made out of" .
Here’s the Challenge: create a work of art with one or more of the following supplies:
paper tube
egg carton
plastic containers
plastic containers
Here's our contest entry the
"Princess Pool / Lounge Area"
This is an overview of the lounge area.
The toilet roll water fall which runs into the egg carton pool and in the background you see the egg carton pool-side-swing for Polly "in the pocket" as Lulu calls her and the newspaper palm tree.
Polly in the Swing (please excuse her hair-do, she just took a dip into the pool.)
The cottage cheese container cabana with handmade drapery and egg carton lounge chair for Ariel #1.
This is a view from the south side of the pool.
The pool side lounge chair for Belle. Please note the headboard which was hand crafted by our in-house designer Lillie-Bean. The padding for the chair is made from recycled pillow stuffing and fabric scraps have been used for the upholstery of the chairs.
In this picture you can see the lounge umbrella (lid of the cottage cheese container and a toilet roll) and egg carton sun chairs with foot stool for Sleeping Beauty and ??? (I forgot her name).
Ariel #2 taking a ride on the water slide (paper towel roll).
This is a very prestigious club! As you can see; the Princesses are lounging at the pool side.
This is the top view of the lounge area from the penthouse.
The coolest part is that the Ls LOVE it. I will take a few pics of them playing with the furniture but we basically have to drag them away from this to go to bed and it's the first thing they run to when they wake up.
Thank you Make and Takes for this challenge!
It's been a blast!!!
