These happy campers (?) have a large play structure in a corner of our backyard. All thanks to previous houseowners who left it.
Well we love it - and it's getting lots of use! Nothing is broken - there's two normal swings, a toddler swing and a tire swing under a fort. The fort part has the wooden bars for a roof - these forts usually have the canvas type roofs - but te actual canvas/roof was never there since we lived here.
I kept meaning to make one.
Well today a brilliant idea made the roof happen - in about 10 minutes, cost $5, and it's rainproof! :)
What you need:
#1 One shower curtain - bought long time ago for $5. It's the vinyl kind - and it came with large C-shaped hooks.
#2 One sewing machine.
Cut the shower curtain in half right down the center. Put parts right sides together, and sew the bottom together to make one loooong piece with the holes (for the hooks) on each end.
Snap to fort! (first I tried to tie it with string, but the vinyl tore. Then I tried the hooks - and it worked great!!
