Barn Project

I have been working on making this little barn for my nephew, Josh. He loves animals and for his birthday he got the Little People Barn. Well, since they moved up here and are short on space the barn part of the toy has been packed up and he just carries the animals EVERYWHERE. So...I thought this little barn would be perfect. I found this tutorial to make a little dollhouse and modified it a little to turn it into a barn. Well, after a couple of tries I finally finished it yesterday!!

And yes one of the barn walls is brown. I didn't realize until everything was done that I had cut out the wrong color for the last wall....but thank goodness my husband can draw and made me a cute little tractor to put on the back!

The best part of the whole thing....Josh actually plays with it!

WOW - good job lizzy. Sometimes I wonder if I would create more if I had a sewing machine....I am beginning to kind of want one.

It is VERY cute!
