In reply to Ingrid.

I included long pieces of fabric on each corner so it can lace around the wooden frame and tied into a bow. Alternatively, I’ve seen others cut the fabric to size and use a hot glue gun to secure it on – it’ll do the job but just won’t be removable/washable.

Looks great! How did you make the awning? As in how does it attach to the cubby and how do you get the fabric on? ( I am useless with anything diy)

In reply to David Morgan. Hi David, no sealant or any other materials were used on the roof. We haven't noticed any gaps, etc

Hi Jen, great little project. In addition to the wether proof paint did you use any sealant on the roof to close any possible gaps??

In reply to Alana. Hi there, did you paint the cubby house immediately after opening? Or did you wait a few weeks for it to weather?

In reply to Nicky Monk. Hi Nicky, there's no need to secure the cubby house, it's really sturdy and doesn't move at all with high winds or play. At least not yet with my 3 year old!

I love this!
Did you need to secure the cubby? Or did you just place it onto the flooring?
Does it move at all with the wind or with play?
