That is a neat, neat idea.
Here are some thoughts which might spark some ideas for you:
First a website, www.swg-decor.com. I really like that site and you can see most if not all the furniture and loot available in picture form. There's also a gallery of designs. Garva's home show should provide for some nice ideas as well. I know I've seen neat ideas for sinks and faucets at the least.
I have done the oven idea for a kitchen. I used the curved couches as a chimney and those horrible upholstered chairs to resemble bricks for a "brick oven." Ihaven't tried it, but a properly placed brazier (fire pit) might also work; it just might be too big for the narrow space you're working with. I had a long dining table with food sitting out in various stages. I also liked using the cabinet and armoire that match the dining table since they look to me to reasonably resemble a pantry. If you use the counters, it's a nice detail to double them up w/ a row above to look like overhead cupboards.
There are some nice loot pieces such as the 'decorative bowl' that could serve as a large salad bowl. Maybe even use the looted animal cage and have some small animals in it waiting for.... dinner.
And if you feel like going fishing or making a fresh-fish tank that might be a nice touch too.
Hope it turns out as cool as it sounds. Good luck.

Great Idea, sounds like a lot of fun. On the designing part Ive noticed that just naming something that may not look like an item seems to help a lot. Sure some of the things you can tell what they are, but lets say youve got some bookcases for a fridge, well most people wont be able ot tell what it is unless you name it and then it looks like one.

Funny you mention this, Seems my starshine surprises..renamed "Stale Bongwater" sell all the time. I try to rename these with different names and find this one of the fun things to do. Now if we could only do it to Swoops....
