I painted the small spice cupboard to match our 18" dollhouse kitchen that has similar accent colors. |
Supply List:- tiny glass bottles with corks
- wooden box with small compartments
- acrylic paints
- spice label printable (below)
- double sided tape
- clear packing tape
- home printer
- glitter, paper, spices (for stuffing glass bottles)
- hot glue gun and hot glue
Step-by-Step Instructions:
- First, you will need to acquire a small spice rack sized for an 18" doll. The example show here is made from wood. However, you can make one similar to this using a small cardboard box. This one is made to hang on the wall; see the fancy metal loop at the top. (photo above.)
- My doll sized spice rack was originally stained. I painted the who shelf white and then the interior shelves in accent colors found in our large, 18" doll kitchen. Our kitchen is grey with pink and coral accents.
- I filled the tiny jars with glitter, beads, real spices and shredded paper.
- Then I squeezed hot glue just inside the lip of each jar and pressed the cork inside so that the bottles would not leak during play.
- Below are the spice labels that I printed out for this craft. Each one was cut and pasted initially with double stick tape and then taped over the front of the label with clear packing tape.
