Introducing my new Etsy Shop: Charming Felt!

I received a lot of requests to purchase
some of the Felt Board Pieces I created...so..

I decided to open up shop! Charming Felt.
All hand cut..hand sewn..little works of felt art for creative playtime!
No markers or glue.. all homemade, safe & durable cuteness.

Excited for this crafty venture!

I had seen lots of felt board pieces made by just cutting and glueing..

but I wanted a more charming look..

and the hand stitching little details made them extra special!

 And look forward to adding more items to the shop.

I love making Felt Food for my girls..I think I'll add some new Felt Food to the shop soon.

And because large felt boards are a bit tricky to ship...I plan on creating portable roll up ones that will have fabric on one side..felt on the other..with a tie to close them.

Perfect to be able to roll out on the table for your kids to play with!

If you are interested in finding out more...

check out the listings in my shop...Charming Felt.

Pricing is determined by how long it takes me to create the hand stitched pieces.

If you have any questions.. or requests for certain items grouped.. message me!

Sophia's Felt Food- My Favorite Tutorials

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!

You can create a lot with just pictures..

so hope the ones we made get you started!

Below I've listed some links to my favorite felt food tutorial sites I have come 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. :)
