Love but how to you keep it clean?

Absolutely lovely and inspiring. You took a truly ugly facade and turned it into a gem. I'm considering buying and it is good to see an example of this kind of building transformed.

Thanks for those of you who posted tips on paining brick!

And to all of you preservationists who don't want to see brick or wood painted ever... surely SOME variation needs to be acceptable? Does everything need to be exactly uniform? And what's wrong with a bit of color? All over the world from Asia through Latin America through Europe (think Netherlands) there are examples of similar buildings painted different colors. It can work!

I think it's really cute, but here's my question, for this and all sorts of projects that involve wrapping fabric or wool or thread (for example, covering shelving with fabric) - how the hell do you clean it?

These treehouses are absolutely hideous, so I checked the link, and it turns out the image isn't of JK's treehouses but some illustration the Telegraph chose. Phew! No need for JK to break my heart...
