The girls have been wanting a playhouse for a while. Always one to find a cheap and cheerful way to do something, I bought a second-hand pine wendyhouse on ebay and spent a very happy Saturday painting it and decorating it to the girls' exacting standards! The exterior is Farrow & Ball 'Old White', with home-made window boxes and plastic box balls from the local pound store. The inside is pink (of course) with the obligatory bunting, and I handpainted the name of the cottage over the door. The windows were stencilled to create glazing bars, with curtains and a dark grey painted floor to finish. Total cost all in? Less than £200. And two very happy customers.
