A DIY Play Kitchen for Bella

2008-11-14-playkitchen.jpg

You thought we were done? No way. Jane's is the latest in our parade of amazing DIY play kitchens. She built this one for her young friend, Bella, from a discarded tv cabinet she found on the curb. Jane totally embraced the DIY spirit: If I can do it from junk and odds and ends in my living room- anyone can!

 
 

You can see Jane's raw materials below which just goes to prove that one man's trash is another girl's play kitchen.

The kitchen is fashioned from the curb cabinet, some plywood and wood trim from Lowes, a baking sheet (to form the rack) from Big Lots and inexpensive items from Michael's for the knobs and a wooden "J" for th faucet.
