My 5 year old also likes to have a private little spot for his "fort." So, I took an old shower curtain rod, some curtain clips that I am not currently using, and part of a sheet, and made him a little corner with some privacy.
Behind the curtain, I made a book sling to keep a few books.
I love how the book sling turned out. I used some left over sheet from the bed skirt that I made, and put some blue accents on the end out of another sheet I had.
It really holds quite a few books.
I found the tutorial for the books sling here from Penny Carnival. It is really quite simple, you just need a double curtain rod a some fabric.
Next on my list is a Rollie Pollie to sit on!
I love this idea, Richelle! It is great and really cost effective. I was a teacher before kids, and this would be a great project for a classroom or a kid's room! I was thinking I could even use grown up looking fabrics and make a small one for books in an office or next to a nightstand. I shared your post on my Friday Favorites today. Thank you for sharing the great idea! Have a beautiful weekend!
