So we all know I have an OBSESSION with the felt mats. disclaimer: the first two I made were for gifts click HERE for the boy one and click HERE for the girl one… and the batman one I made (click HERE) was for my son….so my daughter didn’t even have one.
So OF course I HADÂ to make her one. It’s in the parent hand book. page 56 paragraph 2.
And I wanted to make her one for her littlest pet shop (all 50 of them)
- Sharp scissors
- felt
- hot glue gun
- LOTS of glue sticks
I just took all her animals for ideas…she had dogs, farm animals, bunnies, zoo animals, water animals, birds. So I just made sure I had a spot for each one!
The zoo with some cages for the giraffe, monkeys, elephants, hippos, lions etc!
A place for the birds and insects
A cat play area
and a water area
A little spot for the pigs to play and get muddy
A garden for the bunnies and to feed the animals
and it’s a…….

That is so great! I made felt car mats for 3 little nephews for Christmas, and I know my kids would have loved to have kept one for themselves… but since I have 3 GIRLS, something like this would be perfect!! Dang it, I'm going to have to buy some more felt now.
Kelli says

That is adorable. I've got all sorts of ideas running around my head from seeing your felt mats. Thanks!
Carla says
But seriously, this mat is brilliant! Unfortunately for me, I *hate* the smell of the hot glue gun. I know, worst place EVER to make this comment. Do they make fragrant glue sticks? (No, for real, do they? That't be great! My whole house could smell like cinammon buns while I use the glue gun!)
Kari says
GENIUS!! We are a Littlest Pet Shop loving family, too and I'll definitely be featuring!!
rebecca says
This is too freakin cute. I love it! What an awesome idea. I'm going to have to do this for my daughter now
Tonya says
Very cute playmat! THanks for sharing!
tulletwo says
Oh my goodness. My daughter would flip over that! I would totally buy that in half a second. That would be so much easier than making one myself, especially since the craft store in my little town just closed and there is no longer any place to buy felt. But I might just have to make a trip and get cracking.

My daughter LOVES her little pet shop animals and also enjoys crafting. I am going to show her this so she can make one of her own. This really is a great idea.

IN LOVE. Found this from UCreate & addicted now. Where do you get such a big piece of felt for the base? Or do you just glue a bunch together?
Oh & Cougar Town absolutely rocks my socks.

My daughter and I argue over which pet shops are which! 😉 They really are hard to tell sometimes…she usually wins though! Cute mat. I might have to bust out the glue gun… 😉
