Pom Pom Bunny and Mushroom Egg Tutorial


Just in time for the Easter holiday, a simple and sweet Easter tutorial! This has to be my easiest crafty tute so far. The young ones will be delighted with this cute little bunny and mushroom egg.The bunnies are made with three different sizes of pom poms and a bit of felt. I purchased the wooden eggs for the mushrooms at Michael's. The wooden eggs are great because they're already painted white and they have a flat bottom to stand upright. You could also use blown eggs which can be a bit messy and quite tricky. Another option is to put a string on the mushroom egg to hang from your Easter tree.
Have fun and Happy Easter!

With Easter just around the corner its time to unveil my newest plush characters. There is something about a duck that just makes me laugh and smile. They're such a goofy bird and I knew I had to design one for my collection. One thing led to another and well I couldn't have a Mama Duck without a bunch of baby ducklings.. sooo why not have a whole duck family as part of my Easter collection.

Each baby duckling sits in a round box covered with felt and felt flowers. The girls are dressed in a removable bonnet and the boys wear a mob cap and gingham tie.There is just enough room in the box to add a few Easter treats of your own. These darling ducklings will surely be treasured by someone special as an Easter gift. Visit my Etsy shop for more details.

Easter Sneak Peek

I think Easter is becoming my second favorite holiday right after Christmas. I love the pastels and all the cute critters associated with the holiday. Ducks and baby ducklings have been at the top of my list for new critters to make. These little darlings will be available next month as a limited edition. I'm also working on an Easter tutorial featuring bunnies and mushrooms I can't wait to share.

Easter Goodies

The Easter goodies have arrived. Not only are they available in my etsy shop but you can also find them locally at Creative Kidstuff. Included in this years collection is an adorable handmade cloth bunny wearing a robins egg blue felt jacket. Also, inspired by sugar Easter eggs of past I designed a paper version featuring bunnies on an egg hunt. To kick off my new cloth doll sewing kits I will be offering a DIY set of two bunny children. The kit will also have a paper picnic set to go along with the dolls. I will be introducing more critters in the near future. Lastly an Easter cone FREEBIE to download and fill with treats for the holiday. Have a HAPPY EASTER!

HOORAY! Finally finished!

Today I delivered the last of my wholesale order to Creative Kidstuff. Creative Kidstuff is an award winning toystore in Minnesota with 7 stores in the midwest. My toys will available in the upcoming weeks for the Easter holiday. In addition to the plush they will be featuring new paper toys and the first of my printed cloth doll kits.

I 've been working on this order since Christmas I'm so happy to finally finish. Its been quite the challenge and I learned a lot while doing this. At times a thought I would never finish but with the help of my crafty Mom I was able to finish before the deadline. My Mom gladly came over during the weekends and some times after work and helped me finish until they were done. She cut, stuffed, packaged, glued and I even got her to sew some tails. Thanks so much Mom for all your help!
