handmade Christmas

I decided to make a few of my gifts this year! It has been so fun...a bit stressful...but so fun! I saw these little felt houses on ETSY a while ago and really wanted to make the boys one...these pics were taken before it was finished and there is one more side that looks like a little house...I will take more pics on Christmas morning...Here is just a little peek at what has been taking every free moment lately! This is the little gas station side "Jarvis 66" instead of Phillips 66.... the gas pumps are attached by velcro so the boys can take them off to play...
The Market side... this one took the longest! Most of the food is attached with velcro and there are two little brown sacks so the boys can go shopping! I tried to do some things that they like a lot...there is a loaf of bread, eggs, milk, ice cream sandwich, doughnuts, carrots, bananas, candy....
The Post Office...this side has a little mail bag with two letters for each member of our family...they are all color coordinated and each person has a little pouch. this will teach Sammy his colors and teach Jack the spelling of our names....
I have made lots of other things too...I just can't post them until after Christmas...
