Upcycling An Old Cardboard Box

 Assalamuaykum,   Our plushies have been homeless, they don't tend to stand by themselves so we can't keep them just for decor to stand alone, so we found an old cardboard box that we used originally to store craft supplies, and up cycled it into a cute home for them to sit in.

The name might sound a bit funny, but the name 'Ribbunny' originates from Ribbon + Bunny = Ribbunny, as they are the main characters. The cat Kith however is based on an adorable pet we had in Oman. Hope you got some inspiration to up cycle some old stuff of yours, see you next time, InshaAllah. Assalamualikum.

After filling the pot with soil, we added the tiny weeny house and little fence that got invisible due to the forest in the background. We, of course, put little plants from fake flowers from our grandma, which definitely spiced up the whole thing. I also painted some plants with my desired choice of colours. Finally my sister made a tiny ladder to climb the teapot garden so the little humans can get
