DIY- Cardboard box becomes a stove
Yesterday I was a guest on the largest swedish children Tv show, Bolibompa and I made a stove out of an old cardboard box. We painted it with chalkboard paint (I know -I’m addicted), decoraded it with old wallpaper (you can use gift wrap, drawings…)
The stove knobs was made of old buttons, wooden wheels and some wire.
I also made a hook out of an old spoon that I bent like the kid in Matrix.
The hot plates are made from old cork coasters.
They are also great if you paint them and put them on your wall – then the wall becomes like a huge dotted message board cause you can pin stuff on the cork dots!

Viola väckte mig den dagen och sa “mamma, mamma vakna “Dellas mamma är på Bolibompa!”
Great idea!!!! and nice realization !!!! …don’t worry …i have also something with chalkboard paint !!!! you are not alone… ;o))
What a great idea. Toy kitchens always seem to be so expensive… this is a great way of avoiding that!
Vilken bra idé! Jag har jättemånga sen ett år då jag önskade mig sådana där underlägg och ALLA, mamma, pappa, mormor, farmor, svärmor hörsammade önskan. Jag har tretton stycken!! Ska göra en till hallen THANK YOU! Nu känns de inte överflödiga längre;)
Underbart smart idé!
Hej Isabelle! Tänkte bara säga att du är en fröjd att se på i “Fixa rummet”! Du är så kul och cool och naturlig med barnen och ni fixar så fint. Hela familjen har bänkat sig!

That’s so cool and adorable! ♥
[…] she made an awesome puppet theater out of an old cardboard box and leftover fabric. (a bit like Isabelle´s stove). Camilla has a great eye for colors and her ideas are not only thrifty , they are also very pretty […]
