i had a garage sale–which causing me to clean and sift through all my crap.
and have i mentioned i’m a hoarder?
well i am.
anyways…i came across these quiet book pages i made for my kids…before i blogged…so i snapped a few pictures to share
i buy the sheets of felt (cause they are nice and precise and comes in tons of colors)
and then i just cut out the designs in felt by the yard…cause i have a ton of it and everything is hot glued on.
and i know (cause i’ve got tons of comments) that people are worried about felt and hot glue not being permanent…and people would rather sew…(and holy crap that would take wayyyy so much time) but hot glue and felt are like peanut butter and jelly.
for reals.
meant to be together….
okay…

funny face
i couldn’t find the face pieces for this one..but i had mustaches, eyeballs, unibrows, hair, earrings…lots of fun things!
(you could do a monster face too!)
learn to tie your shoes…
under the sea
number counting
and i have an abc one i didn’t take a picture of …
on the back is rectangles of fabric i hot glued on to hold all the pieces….
i didn’t attach these into a book cause my kids don’t share very well…so i just hand them each a page –okay. i hand one to my husband too….
you could also make this cute mr. potato head into a quiet book page

I love felt & I love glue gun, your quiet book pages are really beautiful! How old was Sera when you made these stuff for her? My Polpetta is 1year old, I think it’s too early for her to play with quiet book…

Love them! I started a quiet book a few years back…still haven’t finished, I need to try felt and glue gun method instead!
