We built a playhouse! Last year : ) This post has been in the works for a while now. Every time I thought about writing it, I wanted to…
We’ve made a few updates to our little DIY Playhouse over the last year, so I thought it was a good time to share some of the additions. We hope to continue to make updates over time as our boys grow older and have new interests. It always amazes me how changing or adding one... View Post

IMPORTANT NOTE: It is curbside delivery. Although our trailers and carriers most often come with liftgates to unload your shed, there might be certain factors such as terrain, road clearance, or the weight of the pallet being too heavy for the liftgate to unload which might prevent that from doing so. We highly encourage you to have 2-3 people ready on the day of the delivery to manually unload the pieces on the pallet one by one. Each individual piece would weigh around 1-100 lbs. so it is manageable to have one person on the trailer carry down the piece and the other receives it from the curb.
