In our opinion, there's probably nothing that Kate from Kate's Creative Space can't invent. For Christmas this year, she built this amazingly detailed hardware store for her son Harry.
We love the idea of a hardware store for a child to explore; there are plenty of play kitchens and play markets, but this store is unique and original. There's a coffee machine where you can get Harry's coffee, a selection of paints and wallpaper, gardening supplies, and, my personal favorite, "general ironmongery." Of course, this hardware store is a one-stop shop, so you can also fill up your gas tank from the vintage gas pump.
You can start the tour right here at Kate's Creative Space. Don't miss a cup of the trucker-style coffee.

This is FABULOUS!
Agree. I'd like the gas pump.
Harry is such a lucky little boy!
Click on the link to see all of the awesome details she came up with - and to see Harry's pedal car which I most definitely want for Christmas this year!
How?! This is amazing. With moms in the world like this one I should probably just give up.
Fantastic. I want to go play with it.
Looks good for the photo shoot but it will never look like that again with a little one playing with it.
Wow, it is so amazing what she comes up with!
I love Kate! Her projects are phenomenal and I always look forward to her posts. Have you guys seen the Pirate Ship? If not go!
So adorable and creative! An inspiration.
Oooooh, this is nice. I just brought home my general store from my childhood. My son is only 11 months old right now, but I should be able to renovate it before he's old enough to play with it. This is great inspiration!
Oh how friggin cute......... now where does she find the time to make these things??? I'm feeling very unaccomplished right now.
So very cute. I want to play with it!
It is going to be a giant mess in about 2 minutes with a small child. Then it's just alot of little things scattered around the entire room.
