    Default I made a dark den for my table!

    I was off over half term so thought I would do something with a load of blackout lining material I had. The Kids love it! I've still got to add some velcro though to fasten the window and door to black out the light properly.

    That looks good and a lot cheaper than buying a black out tent
    But the kids loved it

    What a fab idea ! You could make a bit of money if you made some more to sell ( subtle hint )

    Ha! It took me a while to make as I'm not a nifty seamstress - lots of wonky stitching and I kept having to pin bits around the table to make sure it would fit! Enjoyed doing it though

    If you google table cubby house, there are some fab ones people have made. I wanted to keep mine plain though so it could be used as anything not just a house.
