15 Perfect Spring Felt Projects You’ll Want To Make

April 10, 2017 by FaveCrafts

When you think of craft supplies, you likely envision markers in an assortment of bright colors, glittery sequins, and colorful beads. But what about felt? The unsung hero of craft supplies, felt is sturdy and flexible, and can be folded, sewn, and cut into decorations, accessories, and so much more. Despite its versatility and ease of use, this material is one that you might not be using all that frequently. So why not shake things up a bit? This year, you’ll want to put spring felt projects at the top of your crafting to-do list.

15 Perfect Spring Felt Projects You’ll Want To Make

Hop To It And Make These Easter Felt Crafts

Easter is almost here! Are you ready? If you could use some cute decorations for the holiday (and who couldn’t?!?), then take another look at felt. While you could use paper to make decorations, it’s important to keep in mind that the material has a fleece-like feel to it. There really isn’t a better option for making fuzzy lambs, ducks, and bunnies! Your Easter felt crafts will look and feel soft. In addition, these projects will be an adorable addition to the festivities.

Flower Felt Projects That Will Always Be In Bloom

The calendar might say it’s spring, but you might live in an area where warm weather and blooming flowers won’t return for a while. With that in mind, you can still add flowers to your home when you make flower felt projects. The material can be folded over and over in an assortment of ways without losing its shape, resulting in a design that is both intricate and unique. The softness of the material also gives the flower a more realistic appearance, too. When selecting colors for your flower felt project, consider opting for material in vibrant colors. Need a little help on creating felt flowers? This video tutorial on the Felt Flower Corsage Craft can get you started.

Repurpose Sweaters With DIY Felt Projects

Are you in the midst of spring cleaning and have discovered sweaters that have seen better days? Don’t pitch those sweaters! You can repurpose those sweaters and other knit or crochet items into felt, which can be used for future craft projects or repurposed into comfortable pillows or other home décor items. And how do you make felt, anyway? Whether you want to toss that old sweater in hot water or use another method, our helpful guide on felting can get you started. Reusing a beloved item in a new way is eco-friendly and an inexpensive way to add to your craft supplies. Win-win!

Easy DIY Wreath with PEEPS

April 13, 2014 by AllFreeKidsCrafts

PEEPs 2014 Easter OfferingsThere’s no denying that PEEPS are an iconic family favorite for Easter. Chances are, if you’ve been in a grocery store around Easter at some point in the last sixty years, you’ve seen (and probably eaten) these delightful marshmallow candies. It’s safe to say that my sweet tooth is just as insatiable as a child’s, so when I was offered the opportunity to express my PEEPS-onality by taking my favorite Easter candy and turning it into a fabulous craft, I jumped at the chance.

In addition to plenty of the standard PEEPS chicks and bunnies, I received a package of the Party Cake flavored PEEPS, a Large Marshmallow Bunny, two chocolate-covered PEEPS, and a bag of the new Peepsters. I may or may not have eaten all of the Peepsters as soon as I got them.

DIY Wreath with PEEPS

I’ve always wanted to try my hand at making a wreath, so I figured creating a PEEPS wreath was the most fun craft I could create. This wreath is easy enough that kids can help you make it, and you’ll be able to finish it relatively quickly. Plus, you can easily remove the PEEPS from the wreath when Easter ends, keep the wreath, and add new PEEPS next year!

Want to make your own DIY wreath with PEEPS? Scroll down for my tutorial!

 

Easy DIY Wreath with PEEPS

Materials:

  • 12″ styrofoam wreath
  • One skein of yarn (I used Caron Simply Soft. You can use any yarn you like, but different weights and textures may give you a different outcome)
  • Ribbon
  • 2 packages of PEEPS
  • Toothpicks
  • Wooden sign
  • Paint
  • Hot glue gun

Instructions:

1) Tightly tie your yarn onto the wreath in a double knot. Cut the tail of the yarn relatively short so you can easily hide it as you wrap.

2) Steady the styrofoam wreath with one hand (you may want to set the wreath in your lap or on a table for extra balance) and hold your skein of yarn in the other hand. Holding onto the skein of yarn, loop your yarn around the wreath a few (3-5) times. Pull the yarn tight and gently push the loops together so that no white space shows. Repeat this step until the wreath is completely wrapped with yarn. Take care to hide all the white space and do your best not to overlap your strands of yarn as you wrap. It doesn’t have to be perfect, but you will want your wreath to look relatively smooth when you’re finished. When your wreath is completely wrapped with yarn, simple tie a knot and tuck the tail end so it doesn’t show.

DIY Wreath with PEEPS3) Insert toothpicks into your wreath. Make sure the toothpicks are arranged in a straight line so your PEEPS will look uniform when you place them.

DIY Wreath with PEEPSYou may need to test a few PEEPS on your toothpicks to make sure they will be close enough together. As you can see in the photos below, my PEEPS were too far apart on my first attempt. You want them to be very snug, like in the photo on the right.

DIY Wreath with PEEPS

4) Cut a small strip of ribbon (enough to wrap around the wreath once and have a little extra) and a long strip of ribbon. The long strip of ribbon will be used to hang your wreath. Place the longer strip of ribbon so that it is centered at the top of your wreath. Place the smaller strip of ribbon around your wreath, covering the longer strip of ribbon. Hot glue the smaller strip of ribbon so that it holds tight. Make to glue the smaller strip of ribbon at the back of the wreath so the ends of your ribbon don’t show in the front of the wreath.

DIY Wreath with PEEPS

5) Adjust the longer strip of ribbon so that you have an equal amount on both sides of the wreath. Fold down a small section of ribbon at each end and hot glue the ends together so that you form a loop. This is how you will hang your wreath.

DIY Wreath with PEEPS6) Paint your wooden sign and allow it to dry. Once dry, add the “Welcome to our Nest” lettering. There’s no right or wrong way to do this- if you have naturally stunning handwriting (unlike me) you can easily freehand the saying onto your wooden sign. If you were not blessed with pretty handwriting, simply use Microsoft Word or a similar program to print your text, cut it out, and use those letters as a stencil. Once your lettering is completely dry, hot glue your wooden sign directly onto your wreath.

DIY Wreath with PEEPS

7) Hang up your hard work and get ready to celebrate Easter!

DIY Wreath with PEEPS

The great thing about this DIY wreath is that you can ultimately customize it any way you want. I like simple home decor, which is why I chose to use the classic yellow PEEPS for this project, but you could certainly use any color combinations you want. For extra charm, use a different PEEP for each member of your family or add a few Easter-themed embellishments.

PEEPS Decoration

When I was finished crafting my DIY wreath, I found a few miniature bird cages in my crafting room that were perfect for some of my leftover PEEPS! These little bird cages would be great for Easter brunches…especially because you can eat them for dessert!

Have you ever crafted with PEEPS?

Take the third, split it in half and roll to form log.  Cut into three 1-1/2” pieces and put aside.

Heat some water and place in glass measuring cup.  Place a small amount of the candy melts into the plastic baggy and seal tight.  Place in the hot (but not boiling) water until it melts.

Cut the tip off the plastic baggy and use it as a piping bag by squeezing it to drizzle the candy melts onto the nest to attach the Peeps Marshmallow Bunny, the Peepsters chocolates and the Robin Eggs.

Use one of the Krispie Treats logs to secure the bunny by attaching it with the Candy Melts behind the Peeps Marshmallow Bunny.  Allow to harden.

Finish by adding your place card and attaching it with the tooth pick.

Surf’s Up! Take Your PEEPS To the Beach

April 10, 2014 by FaveCrafts

This tutorial is brought to you by Maria Del Pinto.

Create a fun edible Easter craft by adding some PEEPS to your favorite pudding dish.

Materials:

  • Peeps Marshmallow Bunnies
  • Wilton’s Candy Melts
  • Keebler Vienna Fingers Cookies
  • White pudding (store bought or homemade)
  • Blue Food Coloring

 

Prepare your favorite pudding recipe (or store bought pudding) and add blue food coloring and stir until you get a nice shade of blue.  Place aside.

Crush 3 Vienna Fingers and place at the bottom of glass cup or bowl.  Then top with the pudding.

Place a few candy melts in a microwave safe bowl and heat for about 30 seconds to 45 seconds (amount of time may vary).  Take two of the Peeps Bunnies and use the candy melt to adhere a third to the top of the two.  Allow candy to harden.

Use a Vienna Finger cookie for a surfboard.  Reheat the left over candy melts to put some onto the Vienna Finger cookie and adhere the stack of bunnies to it. Allow candy to harden.

Place the Surfing Bunnies onto the top of the blue pudding to create a fun dessert.

 

Note:

  • An alternate ideas is to decorate the bunnies with Candy Melts in different colors to create swimsuits and place them directly into the pudding to look like they are sitting in a Jacuzzi.

Just For Kids! Adorable Easter Craft Ideas

March 19, 2014 by FaveCrafts

This post is brought to you by Mary Egan from CraftFoxes

The next big holiday is Easter! Easter is a time of new beginnings after a long winter. The holiday is a great time to educate kids about spring, flowers, and everything turning green again! The best way to teach kids these ideas is through creative, interactive crafts. There are lots of great how-tos and crafting projects for Easter on the CraftFoxes website. From cute hair accessories to springtime snacks, CraftFoxes has many options for  crafts to make with your kids. Here are four projects you can work on with your kids to teach them all about the spring season. Get ready to have some fun as the weather gets warmer.

 

Felt Butterfly Sewing Pattern

When the weather warms up, kids are likely to see butterflies in the garden. Why not have them create and decorate some butterflies of their own? All you’ll need for this simple and fun craft is felt in bright, springtime colors, embroidery thread, an embroidery needle, along with other fun decorations. Sew the felt together to create the shape of a butterfly. Once the butterfly is constructed, let your kids join the crafting fun to decorate. Offer up glitter, sequins, buttons, beads, and anything else you may have on hand for them to use. This butterfly can be stuck to windows or even on the fridge with a magnet.

You can learn more about this Easter craft for kids at CraftFoxes. 

 

Chocolate Bunny Rice Krispie Treats

Kids love snacks and Easter offers lots of different (and yummy) ideas for treats. This bunny is adorable, and the use of Cocoa Krispies will make it extra tasty! This recipe, which can be found on CraftFoxes, also includes chocolate morsels for that added kick of cocoa. Once you’ve made a batch of chocolate Rice Krispie treats, simply use a large circle-shaped cookie cutter to create the body of the bunny and a smaller circle to create the head. Then shape the mixture into ears for the bunny as well. Once you have everything prepared, call in the kids and have them help out in assembling the bunny rabbit and then decorating him.

Learn more about the Chocolate Bunny Rice Krispies Treats Easter recipe!

 

Duck Tape Easter Egg Photo Frame

Do you love duct tape crafts? This adorable photo frame is made entirely with tape and would make a great Easter gift for grandparents, aunts, or uncles. The frame is a simple craft, but it does involve a crafting knife so you’ll need to help your kids with it. You’ll also need a ruler, a picture of your child, a craft board, and differently colored Duck Tape. Because this is an egg frame, you might want to use pastel colors associated with Easter and springtime. Cut an egg shape out of some construction paper, and ask your kids for creative input — what designs would they like to put on the photo frame? Then, simply cut shapes out of your Duck Tape and decorate the photo frame.

Learn more about this Easter Egg photo frame.

 

Nest Headband

Here is an easy sewing project for kids to try. If you’ve got a young child who’s interested in crafting and is old enough to try out sewing for kids, this would be a great crafting project for them to start with. You’ll need embroidery floss, a needle, a rectangle of felt, yarn, a crochet hook, and some other decorations to use. The bird’s nest made from yarn is simple enough, and you simply need to attach some beads for the “bird’s eggs.” Once the nest is affixed to the felt, close up the felt with a blanket stitch so that it’s wound around a ribbon to create a headband. Make sure the ribbon fits around the head of whomever wants to wear it, then close it up with elastic. Not only is this a fun sewing project for kids, it’s also a lovely hair accessory to wear during spring and Easter.

You can learn more about this craft at CraftFoxes.

Decorating Differently: Easter Eggs that Won’t Break

March 19, 2013 by AllFreeKidsCrafts

I’ll be the first to admit that I love decorating Easter eggs. However, I’ll forever attach a certain amount of anxiety when it comes to dyeing designs onto an egg shell. Reason being: I’m clumsy and am always surrounded by rowdy siblings when I try it. Usually there are at least a couple of casualties by way of broken eggs by the end of my decorating experience. Having reached the age where I am master of my own Easter projects, I’ve decided to seek out new Easter decorating ideas which eliminate the broken eggs shells. Try these tutorials for a (hopefully) happier Easter.

Alternative Easter Eggs!

What first made me think of venturing beyond a fragile egg shell was this sturdy Colorful Swirls Marble Eggs project. No, these aren’t actually marble eggs (that would probably enhance my fear of coloring Easter eggs), these are wooden eggs! Try breaking one of those babies! I can’t believe these escaped my notice for so long.

Colorful Swirls Marbled Eggs

Another alternative Easter idea is to use up those plastic eggs. After every Easter egg hunt, they are all around the house. I love plastic eggs because they are indestructible!

Altered Plastic Eggs

But perhaps you’re not keen at giving the little ones (or your immature, adult siblings) wooden or plastic eggs to play around with. No problem. I was thrilled to find that a happy amount of soft Easter eggs existed. These little chicks, for example, are totally felt. Ergo, they won’t hurt if they happen to be thrown at you.

Felt Egg Chicks

Tough Enough for Tradition?

So maybe you’re happy and careful enough to stick with the classic Easter egg shell to decorate. If so, why not consider some new Easter egg decorating tips? I fond these awesome DIY Blingy Easter Eggs from Lovely Indeed. They’re accessorize your traditional Easter egg with a little ice.

Or you could consider going even more modern by using Paper & Stitch’s Metallic Egg Art Easter DIY. I love the metallic addition to a yearly tradition.

Metallic Egg Art Easter DIY

But You STILL Break the Eggs!

If you find yourself with broken shells this year, at least give them some dignity. Maybe these Easter Egg Planters can ease the pain of yet another casualty.

Easter Egg Planters

I hope these alternatives help in your Easter adventures this year. If you’re anything like me, you’ll be hightailing it to the craft store to get some everlasting eggs. Otherwise, maybe this is your year to add some variety to the regular decorating experience. Either way, good luck!

What is your biggest Easter egg decorating disaster?

Lucky Day for Crafting with Kids: Easter Crafts

March 17, 2013 by AllFreeKidsCrafts

Polka Dot Easter EggsTop o’ the mornin’ to ya! Happy St. Patrick’s Day to all those who celebrate and to all those who craft (it’s definitely a great crafting holiday). If you’re looking for some excellently lucky crafts to make today, hop on over here.

For those of you who decorated for the day of green ahead of time (yay for not proCRAFTinating) or if you have all the luck you need (I envy you), I gathered some of the cutest Easter crafts, since believe it or not, that holiday is right around the corner. There’s something about Easter (or perhaps it’s the fact that the long-forgotten sun starts shining again) that makes me smile. The chickies, bunnies, pastel, eggs, and ahhh the craftiness. Next to Christmas, I’m not sure there’s a craftier holiday than good ol’ Easter.

Grab the markers, pom poms, dye, and feathers and let’s get to crafting some of the must-make kids’ Easter crafts this season.

 

How to Dye Easter Eggs

(the cool way)Tie-Dye Easter Eggs

This Easter, your eggs are going to be awe-inspiring. Is that possible? Once you crack open these links to Easter glory it is. It was a tough decision, but I’m going to go ahead and award these Tie-Dye Easter Eggs first place. I love tie-dye, so there’s a bit of bias there, but they’re cool regardless. Kids will absolutely love dyeing Easter eggs in an original and fun way this year, so experiment with these awesome ways to dye Easter eggs.

What to Make for Easter That’s Yummy

Easter Cookies

As much as holidays celebrate something special, they also celebrate our love of eating. It seems that parties are usually centered around food, and our stomachs wouldn’t have it any other way. Let’s make Easter no different, except for this special Sunday, let’s make the food adorable. Almost too adorable to eat. Almost.

Polka Dot Bunny CraftEaster Arts and Crafts for Kids

Line your mantel with bunnies and chickies, and when the joyful day finally arrives, make sure that you have enough Easter decorations to deck out your backyard. Easter arts and crafts for kids are inherently cute, so it’s difficult picking a favorite. That doesn’t mean that I can’t, though. I just absolutely love these polka dot toilet tube bunnies.
