DIY Cardboard Boat
Do you ever have cardboard boxes that you don't know what to do with? How about build an awesome fort or kid's cardboard boat! A long time ago a sweet reader from Japan sent me this photo of what they made for their son Hugo and while going through some files today I came upon it again! Isn't it rad?! Next time we have some boxes lying around I know what we'll will be making. Thanks Ruth for sharing.

That's such a cool picture! I remember having so much fun with moving boxes when I was younger...my brothers and I made a few boat boxes back in the day!

such a wonderful idea! especially getting the kids involved and letting them decorate.
Great idea, although my kids are also thrilled with just the plain box!
I love this!
so creative and earth friendly!
my niece and nephews would love it, as well as our cat ;)
there was a time when all we needed to be happy was a paper boat or castle.... its never too late to start again. with our kids this time. thanks for sharing.
.....thanks for posting that Rachel..:)our next lot of deliveries will be coming during August and with those boxes my husbands' planning to try a Japanese temple!!
You have got to see the most amazing cardboard studio at http://hutchstudio.blogspot.com/. It is so amazing.
In Yorktown, Va they have an annual cardboard boat regatta! Very cool.
I can totally imagine kids pretending to be moving swiftly across the oceans in that cardboard boat! It's beautifully constructed and lovingly decorated! Now if I can only find boxes in my size, I'd love to make one for myself….
