    That is so adorable and cute as can be. I remember when I was young-I used a blanket to cover a table and just loved how cozy it was to play in there. Your "grands" are going to love their new house. How exciting for them.

    Adorbs. What a great idea! Does it just slip over the top of a card table?

    Yes, it just slips over the card table. Very easy to pop on and off..

    Wish I had thought about the flag pole. That would have been a great “teaching” tool. Not going back to add stuff though. So happy to be done and have had success with the project.

    Ahhh, great to have someone that has had the same experience. My husband just “looks” at me when I told him about the “box”.

    I remember hiding under a table covered with blankets too. Nice and cozy and I could read with a flashlight. Your grandkids are going to love this so much!
