  • Pencil Roll Tutorial

    This project was a long time in the making! Not because it’s complicated (it’s actually super easy!). But it seemed like things kept going wrong, and then we had a rough month. But it’s finally here, and I’m so happy with how it turned out.When I was younger, my mom made this beautiful roll-up carrier…

  • Dinosaur Felt Puppets

    Felt finger puppets are such a simple and fun project to make! The boys have enjoyed our robot finger puppets and our monster finger puppets so much, I’ve been trying to come up with some other fun felt finger puppets to make. Today I have a tutorial for a set of dinosaur felt finger puppets. They are super easy to whip together, and make for a great toy to play with.

  • Life Cycle of a Butterfly Felt Tutorial

    Last week I chatted about the caterpillar we found on a tree in our yard and how we’ve been learning about caterpillars. And just this weekend our caterpillar turned into a chrysallis! We originally thought he was going to end up being a moth and going to use a cocoon. But after he shed his skin, my husband did a little more research and we think he’s going to be a mourning cloak butterfly. It’s been incredible to watch it with the boys, and we can’t wait to see him come out as a butterfly.

    Monster Felt Finger Puppets

    Remember our adorable robot finger puppets from a couple weeks ago? Today I’m going to show you how to make felt monster finger puppets. These are some of my favorite little projects to make. They are so quick and easy to put together, and they turn so cute. And I love when a project can have an added bonus of being a practical toy for the boys to play with.
