Little D's Play Kitchen

So, when Daphne started loading and unloading my cupboards constantly, I thought, what would be better to give her for Christmas than a play kitchen! We started doing our research and trying to decide what exactly we wanted.....plastic? wood? expensive? cheap? build our own? Van was leaning towards just buying one, but I wanted a nice wooden one and they're all crazy expensive. And then.....I happened upon these plans. It was too cute to pass up, so I convinced Van to help my build it since I have NO building expertise. And build we did. So, a few bucks (just a few), new power tools, paint brushes, cute fabric and pompoms later, we have THIS! Great excuse for Van to get some tools :) She got it a few days early since I don't know that the flight attendants would really count it as carry on luggage!

It's not perfect by any means, and there were several flubs along the way, but it sure was fun and we're really please with the final products. Happy kitchening Daphne!
