I'm going to make royal pavilions and a little green wool patch to put them on. That way our royals can sit out in the summer months and be shielded from the sun.
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.
