And of course with the sun and usual wear and tear the foam padding started falling apart and the bouncy screen ripped. \u00a0But I didn\u2019t have the heart to throw it out. I looked online, Pinterest and other favorite DIY sites for ideas on what to do with a broken trampoline but nothing was what I had in mind. I found cool swings and gardening repurposing but nothing for the kids. My goal is to keep the kids entertained outside in the summer. However, we get over 100 degree days so shade is always good. I was visualizing a fort of some kind. \u00a0And so\u2026<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3411 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/kriselkeeper.files.wordpress.com\/2017\/06\/diy-trampolinetent-23276.jpg?w=700\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kriselkeeper.files.wordpress.com\/2017\/06\/diy-trampolinetent-23276.jpg?w=700 700w, https:\/\/kriselkeeper.files.wordpress.com\/2017\/06\/diy-trampolinetent-23276.jpg?w=1400 1400w, https:\/\/kriselkeeper.files.wordpress.com\/2017\/06\/diy-trampolinetent-23276.jpg?w=150 150w, https:\/\/kriselkeeper.files.wordpress.com\/2017\/06\/diy-trampolinetent-23276.jpg?w=300 300w, https:\/\/kriselkeeper.files.wordpress.com\/2017\/06\/diy-trampolinetent-23276.jpg?w=768 768w, https:\/\/kriselkeeper.files.wordpress.com\/2017\/06\/diy-trampolinetent-23276.jpg?w=1024 1024w\" alt=\"diy-trampolinetent 23276\" data-attachment-id=\"3411\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/kriselkeeper.wordpress.com\/2017\/06\/18\/diy-trampoline-fort\/diy-trampolinetent-23276\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/kriselkeeper.files.wordpress.com\/2017\/06\/diy-trampolinetent-23276.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"3600,2400\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;11&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;Canon EOS 7D Mark II&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1497718780&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;16&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;400&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.01&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"diy-trampolinetent 23276\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/kriselkeeper.files.wordpress.com\/2017\/06\/diy-trampolinetent-23276.jpg?w=300\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/kriselkeeper.files.wordpress.com\/2017\/06\/diy-trampolinetent-23276.jpg?w=700\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I flipped it over! \u00a0The girls were like you\u2019ve gone nuts. They didn\u2019t see it as anything they wanted to play in even when it was flipped. \u00a0So I went to work. I cut off the blue foam padding that was falling apart. That cleaned it up quite a bit. \u00a0I cut the screen completely off where the door once was so they could enter easily. \u00a0But what really made it so much more play-worthy was attaching teal, waterproof, fabric shower curtains with white rope and stringing a set of small globe lights all around. \u00a0It went from a 0 to a 10 instantly.
