All I did was use one of his daddy's old T shirt, fabric scraps and a crinkle grain bag for the 'stuffing'.
1) Cut crinkle paper the size of an envelope. (I used two pieces of a grain bag). Cut a T shirt double the size of the envelope, plus an inch. Cut a small fabric "stamp".
2) Using a zig zag stitch, applique a fabric stamp. Using a zig zag stitch, make 3 lines to serve as the address.
3) Insert crinkle paper inside the T shirt fabric. Finish the sides. Trim all edges to be even.
It was fun to make the stamps different colors. A single T shirt made 10 envelopes. |
I am re purposing a tissue box holder to be used as a mailbox.

ReplyDeleteAww!! Thanks! I love to create. My mind never stops. My husband said to me tonight "I'm throwing out these underwear. I better not come home and find them on my son's head in the form of a hat you re-created".
