DENVER — One man's trash is another man's... art project?

Local artist Morn Mosely II was driving down the street with his wife after lunch one day, when they saw a cardboard box on the curb that had potential.

Any kid or adult who never let go of their inner child know what kind of "potential" I'm talking about: A giant fort!

They threw the cardboard carcass in the back of a truck, drove home, and then spent a few hours cutting, taping and painting. By the next day, they had a beautiful cardboard-castle, now named "Learning Castle."

In the story above, you can see the steps that Mosley took, before donating it to the daycare center where his wife works.
