Birthday Play Mats

So while I was perusing the internet one day I stumbled on some adorable play mats.  I marveled at how intricate and  well made they were. I wished that I could make something like that but I don’t sew. As I read a little bit I noticed that she did it all with a glue gun. I was intrigued but put it out of my mind for a while.  Later, as I was thinking of what to get my niece and nephew for their birthdays these popped back in my mind.  I thought that I would be bold and just do it.  I ended up making one for my nephew, Roy, who turned 3.  It was the first on that I made and I was pretty impressed with how it turned out so I decided to make two more for Bridget and Ethan who recently turned 4. 

They turned out so good and I was so excited for them to open them.  I think they really like them and I hope that they get lots of play value out of them.  I felt so creative and in touch with my womanhood but I think I’m good for a while. At least until Christmas when I make one for Reid.

SUPER cute Kimi! Did you just use felt for the whole thing?

Yep, just felt and a hot glue gun. Time consuming but not hard.
