Writing- setting for the Borrowers' home

This description includes many prepositional phrases and one fronted adverbial of place- can you find it?

The borrower’s house is inside a children’s playroom, in an empty shelf, deep down hidden behind lots of bouncy toys. The entrance is hidden behind the spotty lion, large fluffy dog and a big bag of baby toys, which altogether is a toy gate, which is a gate made of toys.

The toy gate is very strong and bouncy, and from the window all approaching objects can be seem, so it means it is very safe from cats. The Borrower’s kids like to bounce on the toy gate when it safe to go out and play.

Inside one of the rooms which is made from cardboard, fabric and jars that is the comfortable sitting room, a small sofa can be seen.

The sofa is very comfy, and is very nice to touch. The sofa is made from tissue inside the fabric with a pillow that is sewn together. It is great to play on where it is not safe to go outside, the Borrower’s friends and family sit on it. They borrowed the fabric from the tin full of fabric in the kitchen. To make a light they climbed up to a drawer where they had got a jar and candle. The carpet is made of fabric. It’s flowery and soft for the Borrower’s feet. The room is made of cardboard with two windows and a door cut out. They borrowed some scissors to cut the windows and door out by climbing on to the shelf and getting the small toddler scissors. The table is made from some tin and fabric that they had gotten from the kitchen. On top of the table is some circular fabric, which is a tablecloth. They used the toddler scissors to use some more cardboard to make a little plate and they got little bits of food. Inside of the sitting room there is also a basket from a roll of tape from a box and some cardboard, which are taped together. A stool sewn together is beside the table and in front of the light. It is soft, cuddly and warm. A mop is beside a window behind the basket. It is made of an ear bud that was borrowed from a cupboard from a bathroom.
