Who didn’t dream of being a Disney princess? Or at least, dream of living like one? Sadly not everyone’s dreams are realized. That’s probably because most dads don’t have the commitment or mula to do what one exceptional daddy has achieved. Reddit user RadamshomeRadamshome has shared images of the master hideout he built for his daughter. The room before the transformation He begins: “My daughter wanted a fairy tree in her room that she could sit inside and read books, climb the branches, and also have a top sitting area. I was kind of unprepared for the physical realities of this project. I used Disney set-design as my inspiration. Even though it was difficult, I learned a huge amount along the way. It turned out pretty well, and she's so happy in her new room!” He then details the process, which took a total of 18 months and over $4,000. All in all, he worked for about 350 hours on the construction. He learned to weld, paper maché and hand paint the structure. concept drawing He started with a scale model and drew grid lines on the floor and wall to perfectly scale up the impressive tree house.

The upper branches were built with paper maché which he claims was lightweight and durable. Painting began and inspired by painting old models, the father painted dark colours to lightest.
