The Woodland Treehouse

Not everyone is lucky enough to have the perfect tree for a tree house in their backyard, so sometimes improvising is necessary!  The Woodland Treehouse was a custom order that was intended to blend harmoniously into a wooded backyard.

The simple design and natural colors make this set perfect for any setting (and agreeable to most HOAs), while still promoting creativity and active play.

The "Dr. Suess Colors" Playhouse

These custom colors were intended to simulate the feeling you get when you open the pages of a Dr. Seuss book.  They came together perfectly and WE LOVE IT!!!!

The BIG Residence Playhouse


Christmas playhouses don't usually have the advantage of a lush green backdrop, but this playhouse stands on its own feet for color!  As you can see, the sun isn't always cooperative, either, but we take what we can get!

This playhouse is The BIG Residence Playhouse with an Attached Swing Beam and Slide Platform.  It was ordered with The Complete Fun Package, which includes...

A mailbox and working doorbell...

 
 
Personalized chalkboards...
 
 
 
A cupboard...
 
                                  
 
 
And a stow-away table...
 

 
 
But the most fun feature was a new one that Joshua threw in! 
 
A Secret Passage!!!
 
 
 
 



 
 
We LOVE new features!  Anything that makes a playhouse more amazing and fun for kids is exciting to us, and we love offering it to future playhouse owners!
 
 
"When my wife and I sat down to talk about Christmas, we decided that our kids didn't need another game system or electronic device - they needed something that would let them have fun while playing outside and being active. From the first time I talked to Joshua, I knew we had found the perfect solution. What we didn't know, however, was how amazing the playhouse was going to be. The website simply doesn't do it justice, and my kids have never been happier. We are completely blown away, and you will be too. Thanks Joshua!"

We Like It Bright!

"Having kids changes everything."  You hear it the whole time you're expecting, or even if you tell people that you're considering starting your family.  And if you're a parent you know just how true this is.  Having children doesn't just change how your life is, they also change who you are.  Four little tiny people turned who we were into something completely different.  We went from loving conservative, classy, deep, rich styles and colors to... well, take a good look at our website!  That's us, heart and soul.

A Man With Inspiration


The BIG Playhouse

We've been building playhouses and other fun things for about four years now, and we're pretty sure that this kind of business is just about as fun as it gets!  Ask Joshua what he "does", and you'll start an animated conversation with a man who LOVES building playhouses.  He is a big kid at heart.

The Recess Play Fort

But really all of this started with our kids. 


Joshua is a dad, first and foremost.  We often joke that our kids are his hobby, but that's really true in a lot of ways.  Every free moment he has is spent with them.  Loud, crazy pirate swordfights, animated games of Uno or Rat-a-Tat Cat, reading heavily-exaggerated storybooks with many "creative" additions to make the kids laugh are all common occurances in our house. 


So naturally Joshua was interested having backyard play structures that would accommodate and inspire our kids... as well as their parents!  It never occurred to us to buy a playhouse because Joshua builds real houses.  And he can build anything.

So he started designing and never stopped!

 
A lot of things have happened since that first sketch.  Our little playhouse business has grown steadily right along with our children.  They've continued to inspire our ideas and designs, and sometimes even draw their own now.   It's been a fun journey so far, and we're excited about the future!
