    An excellent inspirational post! Fantastic DIY Kid furniture ideas! I am in love with the DIY toy box and play kitchen. My son enjoys involving himself in various DIY activities. I found your DIY Bunk Bed tutorial quite useful. I will very soon share pictures of some of my DIY kid furniture.

    I love the play kitchen idea!! I have some particleboard cabinets collecting dust that would be just a little perfect for this project!! The backing needs to be replaced, but I’m thinking a simple foam board from the dollar store will do the job!
