How to turn Ikea's DUKTIG play kitchen into the chicest toy

Publish date: 2024-03-08

All for very little!

All kids love play kitchens – but let's face it most of them are drab looking at best, or downright ugly at worst. But it doesn't have to be that way – if you don't mind doing a bit of DIY. One of our very own here at HELLO! has proved how easy it can be, by remodelling the popular DUKTIG Ikea kitchen. The outcome is incredible, and the best thing is that the extra work will cost you less than £30.

As most of you may know, the original play kitchen comes in just one colour, light brown with white doors, and the accessories, such as the sink and handles, come in black. At just £60, it is a great present for any child – it encourages role play and means endless hours of fun for the whole family - but let's be honest, it'll probably clash with your home décor.

Well, need not worry, as transforming it into the most elegant play kitchen ever seen is incredibly easy, even if you're a DIY dunce. All you will need are a few spray cans of your colour of choice and a bit of patience.
