Okay, I finished the hot air balloon playpen and would like any opinions or comments on it.
My Hubby helped design it. I tried to post pics of it earlier, but they didn't work for some reason, so here goes again.
The full thing....

The "Balloon" with scraps of fleece and a small fleece pillow inside for cozy naps...

The cords holding the basket to the balloon....

The basket for treats....

That is too cute!!!! What did you use to lace it, it looks like yarn? If it is yarn, be sure to use that for supervised play, in case their nails get stuck, but that is very cute!!!

cool, good job, are you afraid they will chew the plastic part? I don't see why it (the plastic) would be any different from landware, which most people use to do projects on GC.

They LOVED it !!
No chewing of the canvas at all, but they do seem to like the feel of it. The only possible issue is that SugarBaby seems to want to kill the pony beads hanging off the basket with lanyard. She plays tetherball with them.....too cute!
I will take some pics and maybe some video as soon as I can.....it will probably be dark ones as the only light they'll accept is the red light bulb.
Now I am thinking up more plastic canvas stuff to try out for them.
