Here are a few simple and elegant Lego projects that can bring a little cheer into your kitchen. Above, a complementary pair of candy dishes.





A napkin holder, loosely modeled after a part of the Brooklyn Bridge.



This fruit bowl is quite functional and easy to make from standard components.

(Need one? Assign it to your youngster!)



Wooden utensil holder, inspired by the Duomo di Siena.

Finally, a decorative vase that consists of a Lego framework around a plain glass bottle. It keeps your flowers happy, it’s better looking than the plain bottle inside, it’s customizable, and there’s no need to either make it watertight or get your bricks wet.
