Both my husband and I have fond memories of our own playhouses growing up. When we serendipitously met Rudi and saw his wonderful creations, we knew we had to keep the legacy going and outfit our own two children with a playhouse. What sold us most was Rudi's love and passion for his work. The story of why he chose to create these playhouses was inspiring, and as he showed us the different options, his eyes lit up and the pride he took in his work was evident, as well as warranted! These playhouses are incredibly solid and well-built. I love the attention to detail he put into each piece. And best of all, when he helped us place the playhouse in our backyard, he made sure it was positioned properly and level. It is not going anywhere! We easily could have gone out and purchased a playhouse from some big box store, but instead, we opted to invest in something more. We invested in creativity, artistic expression, imagination, childhood, storytelling, and play! Thank you, Rudi! Blakelee M
