Play Kitchen

My favorite re-purposing project, a Wooden Play Kitchen for the kids.

A few years ago, Bri gave me 2 small white cabinets to use for storage.

I loved them, they were cute, I stored stuff in them...

But I kept thinking, I could make a cool Kitchen with these 2 cabinets!

So I did.

Then I painted it hot pink.

I wish I had a before and after picture, but I don't.

The "fridge" is one cabinet and the only thing I did to it was I sawed the legs off, there are 2 shelves inside.

The other cabinet is laying on its side and I sawed the legs off of it, took the 2 glass doors off.  Added a shelf in each of the 3 sections.  Then I made a door for the oven.

I screwed everything to a heavy slab of wood and put wheels on the bottom.

Put a big hold in it for a sink (stainless steel bowl), painted 2 wooden soccer balls black for the burners.  Added some small knobs for the oven dials and the sink, used a wooden J upside down for the faucet painted all of that silver, and there ya go!

It was fun to make and the kids have been playing with it for 2 years now and it's as good as new!

I love wooden toys!

I love building things with my hands and using power tools
