A Shabby Little Kitchen


That's all the kitchen that the shabby house has room for! I still have to make a plate rack and some shelves to go above the sink.

The hotplate stove is just made from a piece of balsa wood, it still needs a cord and a power point. I used extra large domes for the hotplates. There's only one control knob on it because I dropped the other one and haven't bothered making a new one yet. The coffee pot is a painted metal mini. And yes! I made the packet of coffee.
Stay tuned for more shabby house this week...progress is being made!

What about the wonderful taps? The stove is great! Now I go google "domes".

Very pretty this little kitchenette. Yes, I also like the taps. Who are they by?

cockerina said...

is already so beautiful, the pitcher of coffee is adorable!
I can ask what color do you think of the accessories? blue or red?
(I see the side of the sink panel checkered red...)
I hope you will reply soon, I can not wait to see this setting finished!

What a wonderful little kitchen!
Thank you so much for the pictures of such an inspirational miniature kitchen :-)
I rebuild one of my houses (which is the vineyard cottage of Greenleaf) with a very small room for the kitchen. You can imagine that I was thinking about how to build a kitchen in this small space... and you showed us your kitchen and I have a lot of ideas! Thank you very much!!!!

Hugs Taenia

Oh Mercedes, this is just too cute!
I love everything about it! I hope you will share how you made the bag of coffee? The undermounted sink and faucet are brilliant!
My dollhouse doesn't have room for a big kitchen either. Thanks so much for your inspiration!

Mmm, so nicely balanced with that slim window on the side. As a good cook has to have propper lighting ;D Call it shabby, its still very well equiped!
