Kitchen ooh kitchen..


I’ve been drooling over the beautiful kitchens they have for dollhouses.
Such as these from elf miniatures:




And these from prd miniatures and minismodernas:
 
unfortunately I’m on a very tight budget when it comes to miniatures right now (close to nothing) because I need to spend all of my money  for my real 1:1 size house (I’m moving on my own!! Wohoo) since I’m a long way from finishing that!  I’m annoyed that my doll house isn’t finished jet and therefore cannot take it’s rightful place in my room! The only room I still have to finish is the kitchen/ dining room. But somehow finding a modern kitchen in Holland is close to impossible! So I’ve been looking for other sites and I found  the kitchens shown above! But the prices are just too much right now so  I’ve been trying to figure out a way to get a modern style  kitchen for a smaller budget but that would still be a hard task.

So I’m shouting out to you guys for help!

HHHEEEEEELLLLLPPPP!!!!!

Do you guys have any idea how I can maybe make my own kitchen and what materials etc. I would need?  I’m not a star with power tools (plus my dad won’t let me borrow them)
Or do you maybe know someone who has made one themselves and who would like to share how they did it? Do a tutorial about this!

I really hope you guys can help me out !

    1. hey Cyd I’d love to do a swap but I must warn you I’m not good at making big items myself! I’m good at accessories and stuff if that’s oke with you!

    2. Perfect...I'm better with larger items than accessories! Send me an-email with specifics: alamod(at)hotmail(dot)com.

  3. fantastic idea for swapping! yay!

    I did want to add that Kris (one inch minis by Kris) has some great tutorials on working with matt board (and you would never know)- and recently on the site there was a discussion on where to find it and what it is called in the Netherlands i think! None of hers are modern but you could try some of them to get an idea.
