Styrofoam box table

This was another small thing that I made for my son before I began woodworking. It is a small  table that was made by cutting out the sides of a thermocol (styrofoam box)

It was fun while it lasted. 
However it was too light and my son could toss it around and hammer things into it. Surprisingly it could take his weight. 
The chair was a flat piece of thermocol with some old spice bottles used as the legs. 

Cardboard Carton House

This was a house I made for my son way before I started woodworking. It is a TV carton covered with color paper. I used a black marker to highlight the edges.

My son loved it. It is now difficult to get rid of large cartons as they have to be converted into houses. for my later houses I did not have the patience to cover it with color paper.
This did last for a few months.
