Dark kitchen fittings. Black kitchens. Navy. Is it just me or is it a thing now? They seem to be everywhere in interior images, and it’s one of those things – once you see them, you can’t unsee them. Well I haven’t been able to. So I decided to create miniature black kitchen fittings with paper, since it’s not so easy to change the real kitchen!
[1/12th scale miniature oven]
I racked my brain really REALLY hard to create a miniature oven that looks modern, pretty damn cute and “functional” to a certain point. As with real kitchens, dollhouse kitchen appliances like ovens can create a focal point in a dollhouse kitchen. It’s important to let it fit in but make a statement at the same time.
I decided to make the oven complete with the inside and an oven shelf. The door can be opened and miniature food can be placed inside on the shelf, almost like a real oven.
I cut out the window part and used an upcycled plastic from a strawberry punnet as the oven window. The oven hood is complete with a filter design. The top end of the hood pipe can be glued to your dollhouse ceiling.
Initially I was worried that the black ink may come out uneven and look terrible, but I was pleasantly surprized that the whole look of the dollhouse kitchen turned out so well!
With these pieces, the matt surface adds to the gorgeous feel and I love it. How do you like the look?
Not sure of how to make the templates? I’ve got you covered! Check out my tutorial on how to make the oven.
