Score!


I got this hand made wood fridge and stove at a yard sale yesterday. They need some paint, but other than that they are perfect. Hand made by some grandparent or parent somewhere. They are solid plywood, and really cool. The oven has a drawer below it for storage, and working knobs and a little rack inside. The fridge has veggie drawers and an icebox with two little ice cube trays in it. Its pretty fantastic. Now I just have to make some felt food to go in it.

That reminds me of the play stove my brother made for me at the cottage. It had sections of a log for the elements, and of a small branch for the knobs. So much better than plastic. My brother also made me all kinds of things from cardboard boxes, which we always had in plenty, since we moved so much. He topped it all off by making me a playhouse with the plywood container in which our belongings came to Canada... Welcome back from holidays, and I hope the boys get a lot of mileage out of those. You can always buy some eggs, milk, etc. in smaller containers, and then give them the empties...
