A creative mom builds a miniature kitchen for her daughter from old cardboard boxes
When you have children you have to take into account that there will be a lot of expenses, including of course, the cost for toys. It is normal for a child, or a grandchild, to always want to have a new toy. And it is also true that they will most likely get bored of the new toy quite quickly. Always, there should be a balance between satisfying the child's wants and not spoiling them. But how does one do this and how does one know how much to spend on toys? Taking a tour of the toy shops, you immediately realize what the average expense is and just how expensive toys can be. An ingenious mom, however, has found a great way not only to save money, but also to spend quality time with her child. Thanks to her skills in the field of DIY, she was able to build a miniature kitchen for her daughter.
The final project is truly amazing!
Almost everyone, when a child, wanted a kitchen in which to pretend to be grown up. It is not surprising, then, that many of the most popular games among the little ones are playing with a miniature copy of what adults use every day, for example: the vacuum cleaner, the kitchen, the oven, the iron...
Rodessa Villanueva-Reyes is an ingenious and creative mother and entrepreneur - so much so that she built an entire toy kitchen for her daughter, starting from a foundation of cardboard boxes. This is a DIY project that any parent with a little time and effort could do. Rodessa started by making the shapes of the wall units, appliances and everything else, so as to have a base from which to start.
To color and bring the designs and patterns to life, the mother used colored adhesive paper - mainly white and light blue.
In the end, this mom went even further and super-detailed the miniature kitchen, providing it with all the necessary utensils, sinks and flashy signs to put outside (when they pretend it is a coffee shop). To build the sink faucets, she used liquid soap dispensers, proving her great inventiveness and creativity. For the tiles, she used colored napkins.
