Here it is! The moment you've been waiting for!

Well, a few of you at least. Some may not know, but for Christmas, Ben and I built a kitchen set for "the Douglass Children." It turned out super cute if I do say so myself. I was able to stock it with some real mini dishes too- real mini silverware from Ikea, real mini pots and pans from DI- even a real mini-mini muffin tin! It is the cutest thing! (I will have to post pictures of these later) There are two things that excite me the most about this project- there are three pieces (four someday, when we have room for the Pantry) so it gives a chance for all my kids to share once they grow up and (hopefully) want one for their own homes. The second thing is that we were able to make the whole set out of scrap wood that we got for free, so I think with hardware, paint, and wood, we spent about $15 on the whole set! It just makes it seem that much cuter!

But the Douglass children aren't the only ones who got a new kitchen set....

That looks GREAT!! I wish I had girls- I would pay you to make one for them, or at least for your plans and ideas. But alas- I don't have girls. And the train set and Star Wars toys take up enough space as it is.
CUTE!! I LOVE IT! You did a wonderful job! And I hope that more than just the kiddos enjoy their new kitchen set.;)
