1) Easy-to-do Playhouse DIY Plan by Jen wood House

Easy To Do Playhouse Diy Plan By Jen Wood House

This DIY playhouse was built with mending plates, angles, and tie plates for a relatively easy and very straight-forward project. It was built in two days. The frame was built out of 2x4s. The tongue-and-groove planks were nailed on. Connectors made it so quick and easy so you do not need any fancy tools everything. All you need is a hammer, drill, brad nailer, and a saw and you are good to go.

When it comes to the construction plan, as soon as the playhouse’s frame was built, the builder used a brad nailer to nail the planks on. It began at the bottom section, with the tongue facing upwards, then the board is stacked above it which interlocked the tongue and groove. Tongue-and-groove boards were used instead of regular lumber because they have a charming look and relatively cheaper.

10) Naturally Cool Playhouse

Naturally Cool Playhouse

The summer season in Central California is dry and very hot. It is so uncomfortable being outside so the builder built a naturally cool playhouse. Because the area is full of clay, adding a cob layer provides a sufficient cooling which is called a living-roof. With this playhouse, it is a cool spot on the house outdoor area during the peak of summer heat. Scrap wood and materials were used so the builder only spent $30.

This playhouse focuses on the cobbing part. The building was spaced out for two months to help the playhouse living roof to dry, harden, settle, and adjust. The living-roof is 5 inches deep with a thin layer of gravel, old cotton rug, and soil. Leftover wood was used for constructing this playhouse. It is important to use a sturdy frame for holding the living roof. It also has a lot of drainage holes to avoid water build-up.
