If you have a kid and shop at Ikea, then the Duktig play kitchen is an absolute must, and not just because it's affordable ( $99 ) and durable. While it's pretty dang cute on its own, the real reason we love this set is that it's a blank canvas to create your own kids' decor dream. Check out the magic some spray paint and removable wallpaper can achieve:

1. This classy herringbone backsplash is worthy of a real life kitchen.

2. There are so many fun little details in this design: a floral backsplash, adhesive lights under the cabinets, and fixtures spray painted gold.

3. This gender-neutral design comes with a coat of navy paint, a marble-printed adhesive countertop, and "gold" fixtures.

4. This idea shines thanks to the coordinating wall decor. (But those nifty LED lights under the "microwave" are also hella cool.)
