Play With Your (Felt) Food

I recently tried out a new craft, making felt food.  My “niece” was going to be getting a play kitchen for Christmas, so I thought it would be cute to make her some felt food to go along with it. 

There are tons of tutorials on the web, and I got a lot of ideas from Etsy and Flickr, too.  Keeper of the Cheerios has a great list of tutorials as well.  Click on each photo to the see the tutorial that I used, if applicable.  IMG_3821

I spray painted a little natural wood basket to hold everything.

 Sugar Cookies and Chocolate Chip Cookies:IMG_3825 IMG_3826 IMG_3827 IMG_3828I have to say, I got pretty hooked on making all this little food! I tried to pick ones that could be made using my sewing machine, the hand stitching was much more time-consuming.  I have lots of felt left over and plan on making more in the future.

    You did a great job! I love all of the different food items you made. I was looking for play food for my niece for a gift . . . she is really attracted to Coke cans, and I wanted to find her play ones . . . wonder if I could just make one?

    Thank you so much for this post. I am not all that great at sewing but I am going to try to make my niece a breakfast set of food for her new kitchen santa brought her. Since I am terrified of my sewing machine I am going to try to handsew....crossing my finger!
