What do you think of this?



The bendies are the ones from the other castle swap. I made this turret tonight. It is recycled cardboard. I used a paper towel tube for this one, but if I go with this design for the swap I am going to use wrapping paper tubes cut down because they are wider and sturdier. There is a little platform in the top about 1/4 of the way down for a bendy to stand on ... maybe the princess with her long hair (oh wait, that is Rapunzel, lol!). I am thinking also about attaching the door so that it opens and closes. What do you all think about it? Do you like it? It is the only one I made so if you think it's cheesy feel free to tell me; it won't hurt my feelings, lol!

i think its very cool how tall is it? i just want to be sure it fits in good with the castle, which i bought felt for tonight, so that the people in both swaps can put them together

Well, that one is as tall as a roll of paper towels, lol, since it is a paper towel tube But I will do them with wrapping paper tubes and can cut them to any size. LMK what size you think will work best for your castles

For the turrets, I am going to make little plaques for over the door with the family name on them. So I will need everyone's last names.
This is everyone in the swap, if I have ?? next to your name, or if your children have a different last name than you (from pp shipping, lol), please PM me with the last name you want me to use.

1. huntersmama - got it
2. polkadot - got it
3. starkl - got it
4. mamaselena ??
5. korwynne - got it
6. mom2kbeth - got it obviously, lol
7. Geogirl - ??
8. Gronilot- ??

I am finished painting them now. I want to add flags and the name plaques, and make the doors open and shut if I can. They are all about 9" high.

Dear Mom and Dad- I may parent differently than you did. This does not mean that I think you did it "wrong." However, it also does not mean I am doing it wrong.
