Creating a special play space for your child doesn’t have to cost a lot of money — especially if you have some empty boxes on-hand! Here are some inspiring play spaces (houses, furniture, and more) all made from inexpensive cardboard!!
Yay for cardboard!!!

Dear Valerie,
I like how our girls still like “the original”. It’s just a large cardboard box, and their imagination does the rest. 😀
Love,
Mark
And when we don’t have cardboard boxes on-hand, they turn the laundry basket into hot air balloons & sail boats! 😉
These are great! My friend sent me a link to a website that teaches you how to design children’s furniture out of sturdy cardboard. It’s been a while now, but if I find it, I’ll share the link. Cool stuff.
Thanks, Jenn! I would love to see that!! 🙂
It’s “Not A Box” 🙂 Love it! Best toy ever-the new lawnmower…. new toys for the hubby and the 4 year old. 🙂
My son would love the barn. These are awesome.
These are amazing! My neighbor built a playspace out of a really sturdy cardboard box, and it even has two stories! Not sure how safe it is, but it’s pretty sweet. These are too. I can’t wait to make some more stuff out of “garbage” for my boys!
