Let's transform a tired backyard into an inspired playard!!!

The staff at My Friend's House have asked for our help.

They want to create a play house village for the children at the shelter.
We LOVE everything about this and we are here to make it happen!

The vision is to collect gently used play houses and upcycle them. ♻️

❤️ This is do-it-together project.

Here's the plan:

1) If you have a playhouse to donate send a 📸 DM or email [email protected]

2) Book a drop-off time at Common Thread OR arrange pick-up.

3) Donate gift cards for supplies.
Home Hardware, Canadian Tire etc.

Get ready for an outpouring of love

The vision is to create an inspiring outdoor play space for children at our shelter. 💜

We will be collecting:
- gently used (or new!) playhouses to build an outdoor village.

Well that was unexpected!!!

Unfortunately due to a major and necessary roof repair we are temporarily closing our shop.

We care deeply about your shopping experience. Due to the Reno's, the noise level in the store will be extreme for the next few days.

Please be patient while we batten down the hatches at Common Thread.

We will let you know as soon as we can reopen our doors! We're sorry for last minute notice and appreciate your understanding.

I miss you already!!!!
