The Playhouse is Done!!!!
I am so excited to share this finished project with you, like many project I do it starts with a little idea and then snowballs into something way bigger. If my husband had it his way we would have thrown up the walls, slapped a little paint on it and called it good. I think my vision turned out better than his.
The Grocery Store was a complete surprise for the kids, they love to play store so I thought it would be perfect in here.
I love these signs they turned out great
I searched high and low for food to go in the playhouse but all that I could find was a ice cream package and some fruit and veggies so I decided to make my own felt food. These were my first attempts. I have many more to make for the kids but I ran out of time to get it all done. Plus I couldn't make them wait any longer to see it.
I found this cute ice cream kit at Ikea
This bench was made for the kids playhouse by their Grandpa, I store all the extra craft stuff in here.
I couldn't do a playhouse without a craft table for the kids, they love to craft just as much as I do.
I found these cute buckets at easter time as stocked them away for this very project. The hooks I picked up from the dollar store. The trick is to see if the stuff will actually all stay where it is supposed to go.
I tried to make everything have a little vintage feel to it. One of my favorite projects so far.
I finished this late last night so this morning I got the kids up and first thing they got to do was check it out. The looks on their faces is what makes this all worth it. I know they are going to have so many hours of fun and create so many memories in this space.

How adorable. My daughter just moved into a new house (old) with a basement. She is creating playroom too. This is so cute that you made your own groceries too. love it! tfs Tami
Stopping by from Creative Carmella, I just HAD to take a look at this for myself and she was right-this is AMAZING! I want to play in it! :) I hope someday we have the space to do something like this for our kids!!
That is awesome! I want one for me. :D TFS!
there is so much awesomeness packed into that room my eyes don't know where to start! I can't imagine how your kids feel :)
this is a fantastic kids space, the grocery store is just too cute and looks like it would be quite easy to convert to other things when the kids tire of selling groceries- soda shop, bakery spring to mind!

Lisa,
What an awesome playroom. I used to play café out in our playhouse during the summers. The neighbor kids would come and make orders and eat my faux food. Your market is so creative.
