Molly's Refrigerator



Molly's kitchen is almost complete with the addition of her refrigerator. Like her stove, the refrigerator is made from another photo archive box. 

To create the door, I clipped the top and bottom corner on the edge along one long side of the box lid. I glued the small strip to the long side of the box so the door would open and close. 

Shelves were create using pieces of cardboard that were the depth of the box.  Each piece of cardboard had a little overlap, longer than the width of the door. I folded the overlap down on each end and glued it in place on the sides of the box, making sure it was straight.  

All that was necessary to complete Molly's wonderful refrigerator was a door handle. The handle was created out of ribbon and held on by brads. It is a simple design, but for a child with an imagination, it fit the bill perfectly.
