Have you seen the amazing card table forts on Pinterest? They are incredible and a bit pricey but I want ALL of them sooo bad.
After seeing this easy looking pirate ship from ServingPinkLemonade, I thought we would make one as a weekend craft project.
We basically copied this one exactly, well, as best as we could and it turned out great!
No sewing required, instead my girls and I used our hot glue guns to create our Pirate Ship Fort!
You will need:
A card table
A hot glue gun
Sharp scissors
3 1/2 meters of felt for the base (we choose brown)
1 meter of felt for the top (we choose light beige)
1/2 meter for shutters door (we choose a darker light beige)
1/2 meter for curtains and flag (we choose striped fabric and made a sail with the leftover)
No pattern required, really! So easy, so fast and under $40 total!
A small investment for hours and hours of pirate fun!
Our costumes we have had forever and almost all our supplies came from the dollar store.
