Autumn is Here - DIY Pine Cone Fox & Owls -- Plus 3 Autumn Cards for Inktober

I love autumn, and the crafts that surround the autumn season the amazing colors I think are the best!  Check out a couple of cute DIY pine cone animals I made with felt, plus a trio of autumn inspired cards that also have felt on them!!

Various companies provided me with some product to create this project.  The opinions I share are solely my own.


Let's start with these super cutie pine cone felt animals in a fox and an owl  Learn to make them in this video below!


This fox is super easy to make, a little Kunin felt, scissors, Supertite Glue, and a pine cone and you are set to go!  Some basic shapes of circles and triangles are really all you need to cut out the shapes for this cute fox!


The owl is just as easy to create.  This is mostly circles for the eyes and then layered tear drop wings.  


To hold all the felt to the pine cone I used Supertite All Purpose Universal Glue, sticks like magic!

Since I had made this fun pine cone critters, I thought how cute it would be to make one of the felt faces on a cards.  The first card I made an I created an extra fox face and used it on this autumn card.  This card uses a fun ink technique for Inktober of using a square ink pad and making a fun background.  Check out the video below to see how!


On the next two card I used a little peach flower cut from the felt in the clusters.  For the first card I used the same brown ink but did a swiping method to create the background.


For the last card I used a simple swipe method on the edge to give it the illusion of another layer of color.


Check out the video on how to make these!!



I used the same glue as I did for the felt pine cone for these card to help hold all the various layers together.  One glue can really do it all!



What are you going to create this fall?

3 Easy & Punny Felt Costume Ideas Plus one for a Stuffed Animal

I love cute costume ideas and one that are a little tongue and cheek are the best.  Here are 3 fun ones that are perfect for kids or adults, plus one for a stuffed animal!!

Various companies provided me with some product to create this project.  The opinions I share are solely my own.



Check out the video to see how easy these are to make!


1) Pumpkin Pie - this one is so easy, you take a orange shirt, cut out a pie (the syombol from math about circles) out of felt, use Supertite Fabric Tac Adhesive to glue the shape to the shirt, and then use a pumpkin as a prop.  EASY!!



2) Iron Chef - this one is pretty cute as it is a play on words with the symbol for iron (Fe) and the show iron chef.  There are 3 parts to this costume, but all are super simple with Supertite Fabric Tac Adhesive - check out the video below to see how.




I even wore this on Halloween day minus the hat since it was super windy outside walking around, works great for both kids and adults!!



3) Ceiling Fan - so this is a fun play on words with the item of a fan on the ceiling of your house and a fan at a sports game.  Making the felt finger, the shirt, and adding in some pompoms we had at the house made for a cute costume my daughter even wore to school! Check out how easy this is to make with Supertite Glue.




4) Stuffed Animal Costume - sometimes kids want to dress up their stuffed animals, so how easy it is this fun costume using felt and Supertite glue!


Check out the video here.
