Ever since last year I've been planning to set one full day aside so that I could construct a play tent for my kids. I never got around to gathering the materials and the desire to build a tent subsided until I saw this cozy play tent that serves as a reading nook.

Anna of Lawrence Girls came up with plans for a play tent that cost her only $25 in materials. I love her idea of using curtains as the fabric sides of the tent. The tabs are pre-sewn for hanging. If you want to get all of Anna's step-by-step instructions and see more "during" photos, check out her blog Lawrence Girls.
