Catherine Romano blogs about crafty projects for kids and parents
My son recently started a preschool program and I wanted to send him off with something special. My mom used to leave little notes in our lunches – each note said something sweet and included a cute drawing (which was often of my cat). Since my boy is still too young to read mommy-notes, I went to the web to look for inspiration and stumbled upon these adorable pocket hearts. I knew my son would love a heart tucked into his blue jean pocket, so I made a trip to the dollar store to collect materials and start the project.
Check it out.
My materials:
- Felt
- Needle
- Batting
- Scissors
- Embroidery thread
Here’s what I did:
1. Layer two sheets of felt on top of each other, and cut out a heart shape.
2. Thread the embroidery through the needle.
