Snowed in and bored

So this is what I do when I am snowed in and bored, I make my little boy a bag of his own and a felt board to  match. I made these out of stuff i had laying around my house. It makes me feel good when I create something and do not need to buy anything.

The felt board I made out of leftover fabric and the felt I had laying around for this purpose. All I did was take a three ring binder apart and used the front and back cover. Then I covered it up in the fabric and sewed it up.

For the bag I made a version of this bag. I changed a few things like the size and instead of batting I used extra felt that i had from the felt board. Her instructions for the bag are really clear and easy to follow. So go and make one for your self :)

    That bag is awesome! I have been looking for an eco-friendly grocery bag that was cute and didn’t say “Wal-Mart” all over it. Could I commission you to make me one? Are they time consuming? I would buy all of your materials and compensate you for your time, just name your price! :D
