Well maybe not paper...felt! The girls got a play kitchen for Christmas from Nana and Papa Epps and there is plastic food all over the place. :) Lilly was struggling to carry a bunch of it back to the kitchen and kept dropping it. It just occurred to me that I could whip something up really quick and the girls could use it for carrying around some of the food.
I had an abundance of tan felt, so here is what I did. It was SO easy!! I cut these 4 rectangular pieces...
One square piece the same size as short edge of the rectangles, and two skinny strips. That is all the pieces you need...
The easiest felt project you will ever make...Sew the 4 rectangles together along the longer edges. Take pinking shears, and trim along one edge.
See, now you have a little tower...I used my machine and did a simple zig zag stitch to sew it all together.
Then I sewed the square onto the bottom (the edges you did NOT use the pinking shear on). Easy peasy...
See??
Now take the strips and sew them onto the top edge of 2 of the sides. Just like paper bag handles. :)
Now give it to your little ones and let them go play...
Did you go shopping, Lilly? Good job, baby!
This only took about 20 minutes from start to finish...go make one!
