These felt popsicles are made with mini wooden craft sticks and are just the right size for little hands.  Ada has been counting the days until popsicle season, so I decided to make her some for her play kitchen.  To make your own you will need:

*Variety of Felt in Popsicle Colors (This is my favorite source for wool felt)

*Mini Craft Sticks (Amazon has some here)

*Stuffing

*Embroidery Floss

*Large-eyed Needle

*Scissors

*Card Stock

*Pencil

*Felt-tipped pen or chalk

*Glue

1. Draw a popsicle shape on card stock and cut out.  Our popsicle pattern is about 3″ x 1.5″.

2. Fold felt in half and trace pattern onto felt using pen or chalk.  (Or just hold pattern onto felt and carefully cut around it).

3. Cut out two popsicle shapes from each color.

4. Glue craft stick to the inside of one of the felt pieces.

5. Put a small amount of stuffing on top of the felt and lay the second popsicle half on top.

6. Using the embroidery floss, blanket stitch around the edges of popsicle beginning at one edge of the craft stick.

7. When you get to the other edge of the craft stick tie off stitch and secure with a small bit of glue.  Use the needle to thread floss inside popsicle and cut off the end.

These wool felt hearts are really reversible magnets for the fridge.  They are flat enough to put through the mail and make perfect valentines or invitations to a Valentine’s Day party.  You will need:

*Felt.  We used two colors of wool felt from Woolfeltcentral.com

*Embroidery Floss in contrasting color

*Stuffing

*Two small, strong Magnets.  (You only need one if you don’t want the heart to be reversible).  We used Tiny Mighties

*Glue

*Cardstock, or paper to make the pattern

1. Fold cardstock in half, draw half a heart along the fold. Unfold and you will have an even pattern.  Trace onto felt and cut.

2. Glue magnets on inside top of each heart cutout.  You don’t need much glue because the magnets will end up safely inside of the heart and won’t fall off.

3. Place a little stuffing on one side of the heart.  You can adjust stuffing position as you sew, and the stuffing will help prevent the strong magnets from sticking to each other.

4. Blanket stitch the hearts together.  Stuffing and magnets will be inside.  Push any stray stuffing inside as you sew.

5. Allow glue to dry.  If you are putting the heart through the mail you may want to fold it inside a note before putting it in the envelope.  We used vellum envelopes from Envelopemall.com

XOXOX!
