5

Build the door with 3/4" pocket holes and 1-1/4" pocket hole screws.

Attach acrylic glass to the back with either craft glue or hot glue or predrill holes and attach with screws. Just make sure the screws DO NOT have a bevel on the back of the screw head. This completes the sink base build. You can now accessorize by adding a sink bowl, curtains, faucet - the options are endless.

6

To make the base into a play kitchen stove, you'll need to add a stove door.

Install the stove door. I recommend a side swing so no little toes get bruised with a up and down swing. Install a magnet to keep the door closed. Install handle and four knobs.

Finishing

Sand all surfaces, starting with a medium grit and finishing with fine. Wipe off the dust, fill any holes or gaps with wood filler, and sand smooth once dry. Apply primer if you're painting, then finish with your choice of paint or stain and seal with a durable clear topcoat. For outdoor projects, use exterior-rated primer, paint or stain, and sealer so the piece stands up to the weather.
