Princes Nagger took advantage of the warmish weather Mother Nature blessed us with over the weekend to spend some quality time outside. At some point she wanted me to come check out something she had done, promising that it would be really cool. It was. She ‘decorated’ her sad playset with the pile’o’beads she’s loved to play with since she was 2:
Even though this playset has definitely seen better days (it was a hand-me-down and even then probably should have been relegated to a burn pile but it wasn’t in our budget to buy a new one) she loves to hang out on it reading, swinging, sliding or just making up fun imaginary games. The platform at the top of the slide, in spite of it’s dilapidated mode and the tarp ‘roof’ long gone, she still refers to it as her ‘clubhouse’. She decided her ‘clubhouse’ needed more pizazz, hence the beadwork:
I love that she has no problem with ‘making do’, and hopefully the budget will allow the purchase of a new and improved one before she gets too big/old to enjoy it. Princess Nagger did say that if Creative Play (the brand of this playset) or any other playset company out there wants to send her one to review, she’d be happy to try it out thoroughly and give her honest opinion.
In the meantime, I think she’s done a great job prettying up the dilapidated one, don’t you?

She did a fantastic job! How creative of her!!! Can I adopt your beautiful daughter, please, please, please!!
Have a nice day, Stacy!
Gotta love a little girl who not only makes do, but thinks of way to spice things up. 🙂
Stacy, I didn’t realize you had your own linkup so I’m glad I finally made it over! I think she did a phenomenal job with the decor. My daughter is 14, hubs has been unemployed for six months. She has been great about it but I can tell the “making do” is wearing on her. Hopefully this is part of some huge life lesson that will benefit her as an adult. For now it just sort of stinks. 🙂
Tell the Princess I love it! I have beads decorating my shelf in my… hmm it’s a walk in closet, but it use to be a very tiny bedroom, so it’s kind of big for a closet, but that’s what I use it for. I think it looks really cool! The last picture is the best! Totally love it 🙂
I think she’s made it a romantic place to sit on 🙂
I love her style!
She is my kind of girl…take a lemon and make lemonade! Love it!
lol, too funny!
although, i thought she was just decorating a “float” for mardi gras!
I love what she’s done with her beads here! Looks like hours of fun arranging and rearranging. Now she has a nice spot for surveying the yard. Thanks for stopping my blog yesterday. It felt good to pour my heart out!
Looks like a great day of play! very good imagination. Love the beadwork.
Hear you’re not feeling well! Thanks for stopping by. Feel better my friend!
She’s very pretty and it’s great that she appreciates what she has! Looks like she sure enjoyed it, we have had pretty chilly weather so far. It feels like Winter all over again! Thanks for stopping by my place, look forward on getting to know you better!
What a creative girl!! You need to get her some of those bead curtains. I bet she’s love those!
princess Naggar has the most creative imagination. her beads really add pizzaz! I am surprised it did not have some dinos standing around other than the book she was studying? (thanks for the kind words for my grandson, they were most appreciated)
Wow, looks so cool with all the beads. Great photos of your princess.
Too cute!! My daughter loves to “decorate” our house with those beads, too. =)
Look at her creativity! That’s awesome that she enjoys it and has decorated it as her own.
Hi, just dropping by to show some love from We Don’t Have It All Together, But Together We Have It All!
Have a great weekend!
Sort of like Virginia Woolf’s “A Room of One’s Own”, but a lot prettier!
Definitely tons of pizazz! Very cool idea!!! 🙂
WOW! I think the fort looks great! 🙂 I love what she has done with the place. 🙂
