We Made A Diner for our American Girl Dolls !!!

From the moment the Our Generation Diner came out this year I fell in love with it..  So my challenge for myself was to recreate it trying to using most of the things I have on hand.  I will outline what I used with the following pics as I did not take pics while creating it.



Here is an overview.  Floor is red shelf liner with washi tape.  The stools are made with bottle caps and gift wrap rolls and the seats are just a piece of fabric filled with polyfill.  Images on side wall are printed on card stock.  The walls have scrap book paper.  The counters, all cardboard, are trimmed with duct tape and the countertop is covered in contact paper.

The jukebox is just a box with an image.  The food is mostly from Our Generation accessory sets and the condiments are made with polymer clay.  Menus are an image printed on card stock and cover with clear tape.  Did you notice our chips and goody rack on wall.  It is an empty razor blade container that held about 5 refills.  

Our back food counter is an empty packaging box that came with headphones so perfect for a food case.  The wall clock is a Christmas ornament with a "Coke" image.  Coffee pot is a kitchen timer.

Our Coke vending machine is a cardboard box covered with an image.  


Our waitresses are having a jolly old time!  This was a fun project and will deliver lots of play time!
