Vintage Kitchen in a Bread Box

Once the Springfling contest was done, I had hoped to start on a project that I've been building in my head for almost a year ...a vintage kitchen on baking day inside an old fashioned wooden roll top bread box. Right now it's sitting empty & forlorn on it's specially designated shelf in my kitchen. I have all the lighting, the furniture and the "characters" at hand. But it doesn't seem likely that I'll be able to start it any time soon. I prefer to finish one project before starting on the next because I know from experience, I won't finish it otherwise.
I have a castle roombox workshop coming up in September and once again I have to! have things looking just the way I envision and not just how someone else thinks they could be. Time just isn't an option in all this.

But before I put away my "vintage kitchen", I felt I should show you one of the lovely characters who will be inhabiting the kitchen. This is Katrinchen:
which in german means, little Katrin. She'll be sitting under the baking prep table, helping in that wonderful way that all little children "help"! I commissioned Katrinchen from the very talented children's sculptor, Alex Buslovich. If you check out Alex's blog, you'll see all her other fabulous fimo kids.

  3. Oh, my gosh! She is wonderful! So precious! I love her!

    I have collected things for a vintage kitchen but all of my projects have seemed to come to a standstill this summer with hay, work, children, etc.! Darnit. Frustrating but family and work comes first.
