Have you ever looked at your craft supplies and gone…Duh! Why didn’t I ever think to make that before? Yeah, that was me this morning. I have this cool die cut maker, I have a ton of felt, I have lots of cardboard, and I have a daughter who loves to mix and match different hair colors and outfits with the paper people I made using my die cut maker…um, why haven’t I made her a felt board??
Make-It-Yourself Felt Board
Materials:
Piece of cardboard
Hot glue gun or craft glue
People die cuts (you could hand cut this, but that may be a bit challenging with felt)
Creativity
Scissors
Directions:
1. Cut the cardboard to the desired shape/size. Mine is about a 12″ square.
2. Glue the background color(s) to the cardboard by gluing along the seam and wrapping it around the back. Glue along the edges to secure.
3. Cut various people, clothing, and scenery pieces out of felt. You can switch out pieces for each theme. I was thinking it would be really cool to make an alien scene by cutting people out of green and blue felt. A Halloween scene with different costumes and pumpkins would be so much fun, too!
4. Endless play!
Very cute! Will definitely have to try to make one 🙂
I’ve been wanting to make a felt board for my girls and never get around to it. Maybe this will motivate me.
Thank you for a great tutorial!
