A cute spring idea for your little ones. Holly from Chez Beeper Bebe, has an adorable tutorial for this felt egg book, that lets your kids decorate eggs over and over. Cut out all sorts of shapes and let their imaginations run wild, and when you’re not decorating you can store all the little pieces in the handy pocket at the back. Such a great idea, and beautifully crafted.

I love felt, it’s so easy to work with, and the fact that unlike fabric you can leave the edges showing and it wont fray makes me happy. Here are a couple of really simple tutorials for making some cute felt ornaments.

Molly’s Star Ornaments – Grab a glass of eggnog or a cup of hot chocolate and spend a cozy evening making stars.

Half-eaten Gingerbread Man – This little guy is so adorable. You could also use this pattern as inspiration and make a half-eaten gingerbread woman, or even several intact gingerbread people.

Holiday Mittens – These little mittens are cute as one offs, but I also like Liesl’s idea of making them into an advent calendar.

I was cruising the archives of etsy’s blog and came across these adorable camera cases made by Hine, a Vancouver based artist who also does stop motion animation. Each one is a unique piece of functional art, handmade with felt and button embellishments. They are so cute, they make me wish I still had a compact camera not just my DSLR.
