The best part? She did it for just $400. I don't have a backyard myself, but one day, I'd absolutely love to have a treehouse. It seems like it would be the most wonderful place to spend a rainy day.

PS: Though I was originally planning on starting a holiday gift guide (my first!) today, I had an unexpectedly busy weekend and am going to have to postpone it. For now, I plan on posting the first installment Wednesday morning, continuing on through the following week. I can't wait!
I always wanted a treehouse and I grew up on 5 acres of forest. There was no excuse, right? This looks so amazing. Swoon.

ReplyDeleteTaylor - It's not too late! If a treehouse like this can exist in New York City, then it can exist anywhere :)

ReplyDeletemy dad built me a tiny treehouse when i was little, high in a chinese evergreen oak (the kind where you can peel off the bark into puzzle pieces). it was so rad that i was featured in a newspaper article in the san diego union tribune about DIY treehouses! i used to hang out all day in there reading books and drawing, i loved it so much. i would still do that. : )
