I just wanted to share with you a craft project for my great nephew.. Aj turned 2 this year and he loves Thomas the Train Engine : )
I made this pup tent after seeing it on Pin-terest.. I knew I had to make one so off to home depot I went.. man I really miss that place.. I use to go there all the time and build things but every since I started playing with paper I kind of neglected my old hobby.. but hey at least I'm still creating right..
So any way, the tent measures approx. 4 feet long (next time I will do it 3 feet long.. and about 3 1/2 feet tall.. it folds down flat for easy storage.. I also made a pillow to match. I figure he can hang out in there and look at books or watch Thomas : )
~~~~~~~~~~
The pillow was made using what else.. My cricut : ) I cut the letters at 3 inches tall after securing them to some steam a seam 2.. Now a word of caution, if you try this please use a very sticky mat, use steam a seam 2, place the material face down and then use some masking tape for all edges.. this will help the material stay in place and not shift during cutting and then dont forget to mirror the image so that when you cut the letters they will be right side up.. I hope this makes sense. I also sewed it down even though the steam to seam will hold the letters just fine.
The pillow is roughly the size of a standard pillow.
Any who... I love the way it came out..I hope he loves it too :)
Love you guys...
