Photohunt: Pointed


I've shared this photo previously on this blog. This is the newspaper hut I had built for the kids to play in one afternoon. It's entirely made up of rolled up newspaper stapled together. The roof is pointed which I think is kinda cool. It actually looks like a hut!

When I saw this week's theme, I initially thought of taking a photo of all the advertising pens DH has from various pharm companies/med reps. They give out so many pens and DH keeps getting some! LOL! I found a whole bag of them in his work bag. I don't even know how long he's had these. Such a hoarder! LOL!
But I forgot to take pics yesterday and as he's at work today, there is no chance to take pics of the pointed ballpoints. In my mind, it would have made for a pretty cool pic! But this will do though.
Thanks for looking!

That is pretty cool (excuse the pun) making a hut from rolled newspapers.

The photo below also has a few points of it's own.

@tnchick - I didn't get a lot of pics of it. Too busy playing with the kids! LOL!

@coloursofdawn - the lantern photo is pointed too, isn't it? Didn't think of that at all!

Never heard of making a hut of newspapers. Looking at a closer shot I can see the rolled up newspapers. Cool picture!

Awesome!! This is such a neat project - if I get around to it, I'd love to make one for my kiddos. How do you protect it from the elements (sticky fingers, spilled liquids...) - or are the kids just careful? I'm trying to imagine my 3 1/2 yr old playing in this (ie, destroying it!). The older ones would do great, though!

Thanks for visiting Joy..Love the newspaper hut..it's so clever. I hit up the pharm reps for pens anytime I am in a doctor's office. They are usually nice pens. GGG

How clever of you to use the newspapers as support for your tent! You could have made a paper tree too!
Thanks for dropping by my blog.
Have a great Sunday.
