The Castle

I know, for those who have facebook, I am repeating myself. My brother Connor and I spent about ten hours each building this for the kids for Christmas. It still needs some paint detailing, and the inside needs more work too... but for now, we'll just see how it holds up.

Yes, we could have just bought them a play house... but every time I make something for the kids, or anybody for that matter, I think of this saying:

What printing presses yield we think good store / But what is writ by hand we reverence more.

- John Donne

I apply this thought to anything handmade.
