Stock That Durn Play Kitchen For Free! Upcycle!

Check out Otto's super-stocked play kitchen... 


We've been collecting pics from magazines and grocery/department store ads to cut out and tape into the kitchen. On the lower left we've got a nice amount of colorful pots on the shelf. On the upper shelf, some pantry staples:



Then, so Otto has something to play "with" we super-glued shut empty boxes from our own pantry.

Popcorn, soba noodles, whatever...

Look at that scandalous sink full of dirty dishes. I guess I'm leading by example, haha, because our real kitchen sink seems to look like that all the time (minus the corn).




And an added bonus to the whole "wow, it's free" thing is that it's all recyclable. If a box gets smashed or Otto wants to rip some of the paper pots down (so far he hasn't, knock on wood) well who cares. It can all go in the recycle bin and be replaced when the next annoying batch of junk mail arrives.

Thanks so much for stopping by - I'm following now as well... and how cool! I love the use of the recycled items - my kids love to play with "real" boxes much more than the pretend ones anyway!
