well he didn't build it alone ...he had some serious help from the neighbors....ok, he seriously helped the neighbors!
The thing about cardboard houses is.....
...they are really remarkably cozy...this big blue and white striped thing is my leg....I'm goin' in! And you're comin' with me!
The Entrance.... with Ariel to greet us as we belly crawl in the front door...
The manor goes on and on....Lily beckons us further....
"Come on in....keep coming....you'll fit!"
It's hard to see, but this is the two story sunroof, covered in Saran Wrap, and Katie is that giant Godzilla woman from my childhood nightmares!... Sorry, that's my neurosis, not yours...
The estate comes complete with a defense arsenal. Silly String. Never leave home (to live in a cardboard box) without it! You should trust me on this.
Light is a must, of course, hence the state of the art lighting system, straight from someone's (not mine) camping box....
and Timmy demonstrates the....
VENTILATION SYSTEM! I'm sorry, but this is over the top...
hey, why is there a hole in my laundry room floor????
Windows, of course, again covered in plastic wrap...mosquitos are the enemy, you know.
All in all, it's rather pleasant and roomy, as long as you don't mind hanging out laying on your side...and aren't claustrophobic....or allergic to cardboard dust....or adverse to ants....
actually the ants come later in this tale...with the dampness....and the tears...
Tune in tomorrow for the Cardboard Box House Part II!

Looks like a mansion compared to what my kids recently constructed!
