Puppet Stage

I changed the this plan to make it into a puppet stage for my niece's birthday.

I added a curtain rod and made some curtains to fit. I put two shelves in the back, but I put dowels in along the shelves so she could put her puppets on them for easy storage. I used a piece of a sheet of wainscotting for the front of the bottom.

I also put chalkboard paint at the top to allow her to write the name of puppet show that she is performing.

I was able to use some scraps that I had around for quite a bit of it, so it was pretty inexpensive.

The pictures are not great and I wish I would've taken pictures of the back before I gave it as a gift, but the kids are having lots of fun with it. I'll have to take some better pictures the next time I visit.

Estimated Cost
around $25, but I was able to use scraps that I had and paint that I already had.
Estimated Time Investment
Weekend Project (10-20 Hours)
