Madison's Market

If you follow me on Facebook then you know my daughter Madison wanted a grocery store in her playroom. She loves the one at the Phoenix Children's Museum so I decided to indulge. There is a major lack of room in the playroom. (It is a converted bedroom shared with my craft room too~ remember this?) It was 2 years ago so you know the space has gotten so much more crowded since then. The first thing I did was do some much needed purging! Then I switch out the IKEA cube that was in there with a shelf from the garage. 

I didn't want to spend any money just used what I had. I did spend money...more on that soon. 

I cleaned out my pantry....totally embarrassed at how many items in my pantry were expired! Bad mommy but Madison really scored for her market!

So I had the lemons and the felt vegetables but I knew I had a bag of plastic oranges too. Well, that was before my HUBBY cleaned the garage. They are mysteriously missing! So Madison and I went to Hobby Lobby for some fruit for second basket. We got the apples but then found these adorable eggs, cheese and some bread. So I did end up spending some money!

I wanted to just put Madison's Market in the frame but my daughter wanted her picture in it as well. She said so that everyone would know it was her market just in case they couldn't read. LOL Had a bunch of enlarged pictures from her birthday party so she choose her favorite. She has had the cash register since Christmas...I don't know why the Try Me sticker is still on there!

 If your kid loves "shopping" in grocery stores as much as mine, wouldn't it be a great party theme or play date? Well, my sweet friends of Paper & Cake has a grocery store printable birthday and play date that I MUST get now that I created this market today!! I just love this and my sweet friends from Paper & Cake!
