FAVORITE ARCHIVE POSTS WEEK: Felt Food Tutorials


This was one of my all time favorite DIY projects 
since i started blogging...
1. Because it was easy and for the
most part mindless creative fun!
2. You can find soo many amazing tutorials out there..
which i linked up so check out below!
BUT it's mainly my favorite because it made sophia
 SOOO HAPPY when i gave them to her on her birthday.
She still plays with these and they are perfectly soft so when they go flying in the direction of her sister...there are no tears. and a day with as few melt downs as possible..
 is an awesome day. ;)

For Sophia's 2nd birthday this year i wanted to give her something very very soft to play with because of the new baby's arrival! and at the same time she lovessss all things kitchen and cooking. "watcha cookin??" that's all i hear when i'm in the kitchen. over..and over...and over again. haha. :)

so with the help of my fabulously talented mom...we whipped up some fun felt food! she brought up felt that she had since i was a little girl! so we used up the scraps big and small. already had thread. and only ended up running to Joann's to get some fun thread for "sprinkles" and other cupcake toppings. 
talk about a budget friendly birthday present!
below i've listed some links to my favorite felt food tutorial sites i came across! for most of them we used the basic patterns found on the sites..some of them you just end up winging it and seeing how it ends up. i was loving making them with my mom.. and sophia loves playing with them! her uncle daniel (my little brother) was genius enough to throw the felt donuts in the air and she thought that was hilarious and has decided that that is now the official way you play with the donuts. throwing them. :)
have fun! and get crafting!
BIG THANKS AGAIN TO THE AMAZING MAMA OF THE BUSY BUDGETING MAMA. :)
ps. this is how i blog now.....haha. on the bed. very quietly. with a sleeping bambino in my lap. :)
