When I was a little girl, one of my favorite things to do was play in the shed in our backyard, pretending it was a cabin in the woods. For this week’s Etsy Finds, I have coralled an assortment of tools and props to inspire creative dramatic play with a whimsical, rustic aesthetic. Whether you are stocking a play kitchen or planning a little play house for the spring, I’m sure you will find something here to delight the little ones in your life.
Clockwise from top left:
- Use a Wood Stump Plant Stand ($25) from Bear Paw Rustics as a table in a play house.
- Knit this light and luscious Fiona’s Top ($9 for pattern) for your woodsy little one.
- The Gnome Hat ($28) from Pumpkin Haus
- The Wonderland Dress ($23) from Mani Mina would be perfect over leggings.
- Kids can “sew” on their own Wood Toy Sewing Machine ($45) from Wood Clinic
- A Handmade Child’s Broom ($17.99) from Palumba is the perfect size for little hands.
- Stock the play kitchen with this Vintage Log Canister Set ($35) from Isle of Muse.
- As an alternative to plastic pretend food, why not try this Two-Bite Cake Playtime Bake Set ($18) which includes the baking tin, from Pukashell Creative Designs?
- …Or how about this set of 2 Sunny-Side-Up Eggs ($4.50) from Gourmet Play?
- Needle Felted Acorns ($8.00 for set of 4) from Laurie Coyle Designs are perfect for storing up in pockets or “cooking” on the play stove.
