My newest discovery: Felt Food!
Jack likes to "cook" with Elyette so for his birthday I went with that and tried to find things to assist in this pretend play. Thanks to Ikea I got some seriously cute pots, pans, and dishes, but I needed some food.
I was really getting frustrated with all the plastic junk I was seeing (for way more $ than I thought it was worth) then I realized I had all these felt sheets I'd been stocking up on when on sale (5 for $1) with in the intention of making felt board stories (or something like that). Well, since that idea wasn't materializing any time soon I decided to use it to make play food. It was cheap (all cost me about $4), easy (no patterns necessary), fun, and FAST! I highly recommend trying it out. Christmas gift idea?

How funny...I've been working on the same thing for Abby. I just made a bunch of "sugar cookies" with frosting. I have a basket I am filling with food for her Christmas present! I love the sandwich and pizza you made! Very creative!
So um. How much would you charge to recreate these with a little variation? I want you to make them for me! Let me know! :)
I was just talking to Laura about this! I want to make some...or have you make me some :) I'll put an order in too. Sounds like you could make money on stuff like this! Brynn (and McKenzie) could use some more pretend food also. Cute stuff!
Great ideas!
aww those are adorable... way better than the plastic junk.
