We keep our fruit in a pretty colander I found at a garage sale, and I think it looks great...
except when it's empty....
Then it just looks like a colander on the table. I think I will make some felt food to fill it, for the times we are out of fruit (ok, we are never really out of fruit, because we keep a lot in the fridge too, but that's beside the point). Maybe you have a fruit bowl to fill, or some little ones that would love some new play food.
I found all these great tutorials over at the While Wearing Heels blog. While she uses craft felt for hers, you can always use recycled sweater felt in it's place. I recommend using Merino wool sweaters, but most sweater felt will be fine.
Are you inspired now? I am... as well as a bit hungry ;)
I am beyond flattered to be featured on your lovely blog. I have never thought of using recycled wool before. You may change the future of my 'I heart fake food' tutorials. You just made my day!
ReplyDeleteI am beyond flattered that you are beyond flattered, lol! Thank you for all your fun ideas!
ReplyDeleteThis is something I have been wanting to do for a while, but I never thought of doing corn! I even bought an orange sweater to make some carrots out of, but I ended up wearing it instead.
