Last week’s post was on how to
create your own felt pretend food, but once you have the food you need a place to store it, along with all the other pretend kitchen accessories. We no longer have a pretend play kitchen, it was taking up too much space and it has found a new home, but the girls still enjoy pretending to cook. Here is a great DIY storage solution that doubles as a stove.
.
All you need to create your own stove is a clear plastic storage tub, gray and black arcylic paint, and a lid. Use the lid to trace circles to be your “stovetop”. Paint the circles black and cover with two layers of acrylic paint. Have fun playing pretend!

What a great idea! So simple. It might just be our project for today 🙂

This is such a great idea! 🙂 The pretend food in our church nursery is all mixed up with other toys, and this would be a great way to keep it organized and provide another stove as well. I like the felt food idea as well.
What a cleaver idea!
Simple and effective! Love it! Thanks for participation in last week’s High paw and hope to see you again this week!
This is a brilliant idea. We store our play food in a container just like that one, all I need to do is draw the stove parts on!
I like the utility of this – a storage and a play thing in one!
That’s so clever! I wish ideas like this were around when my teens were toddlers. Visiting from Blog Frog’s Spring Challenge Link Up!
