Today I’m sharing the vintage dollhouse kitchen remodel for my vintage dollhouse makeover project.
I’ve been putting this one off, because I just haven’t been sure how I wanted to do it.
As usual, I looked at furniture sets from some of my favorite brands for inspiration: Le Toy Van, Plan Toy, Hape, Lundby, and Pottery Barn.

None of them were exactly what I was going for – and they were out of budget, anyway.
So, I bought this inexpensive furniture set to make over.
I decided on green cabinets with white counters and stainless appliance for my vintage dollhouse kitchen remodel.
I added a little fabric under the farm house sink for a pop of color.
The rug is from the same sheet of textured scrapbook paper that I used for the boy room and living room, only I cut unprecise pieces of tape that I affixed to the top before spraying with some paint. The tape lifted a little when I painted it, so it’s kind of…abstract.
I wanted a rustic shiplap effect on the walls, so I used this barn wood scrapbook paper. I made the floating shelf by gluing several popsicle sticks together and trimming the ends to fit the space.
The table is from a pizza delivery (you know, the thing that keeps the box from sticking to the pizza), covered with a circle of fabric.
I added a few accessories – a pitcher leftover from my outdoor window box project and a few miniatures from my childhood dollhouse. The fork is from my daughter’s American Girl accessories. I kept finding this darn fork everywhere but where it belonged, so it became a dollhouse fixture.

OMG, so cute! I’ve been procrastinating on doing my daughter’s dollhouse but your little rooms have been inspirig! Visiting from Tip Me Tuesday party.
This is so cute! I wish my kitchen would have been this easy to re do!
Hi! I’m visiting from 100 Happy days Link up. This is so cute! I love the vintage look. My husband built one of these doll houses for my daughter for Christmas, they are a lot of work! She loves it though, and that’s all that matters.
This really is adorable and so well done! I’m also admiring your photography. Nice job!
Thank you so much for those very kind words!
