D.I.Y roundup! (Children's projects):

Hey there y'all!

As mentioned in the last d.i.y winter edition, I put together a whole collection of simple and thrifty projects you could make for your kids (or friend's kids).

Let's teach the next generation that fun toys don't need a big price tag.

Because, as seen above, sticking your head in a plastic house (upcycled cat litter container) can be purrrfectly hilarious!

Happy crafting:

  1. Puzzle Magnets             2. Simple Super-Hero Cape         3. Wild Animal Sweater

  4. Baby Necktie Shirt              5. Tank top into tote bag           6. Toddler Sewing Cards 

7. Woodland Jar Terrarium      8. Fabric Mushroom Rattle      9. Toy Oven (upcycled furniture)

Here's a sneak peek at an upcoming toy-project for our daughter, too.

A sliced 2"x2" (?) chunk of wood... sanded... with magnets glued to the middles.

I'll likely paint 4 woodland characters on each side... but for more inspiration, Mer Mag has some adorable designs!

Can you believe Christmas is a month away?!

I need some of those elvish minions to come craft with me.

P.S... I've loved hearing about your favourite Christmas memories on my GIVEAWAY post ~ thanks for sharing them... and there's still time to enter this week for those who haven't yet!
 

merry making mama,

Mel ;o)
