I discovered that I am charting new territory with these little felted wool finger puppets! I looked every where and couldn’t find any pictures or explanations on how to make finger puppets completely out of wool roving. Martha Stewart has one using craft felt for the face but that wasn’t exactly what I was looking for. These are a little rough around the edges, but as I was asked a couple of days ago, ” Do you want it to look like it just came out of a factory?”
Barnyard Friends
These went to become friends with a sweet little just turned two year old. We had planned to pair it with Aneliese’s favorite farm book, The Jolly Barnyard, but that was sold out so we chose another that she also loves and has memorized, Big Red Barn. As Aneliese loved these ones, I told her that we would make more soon and so there will be a bit of a tutorial coming once I take some pictures of the making process.
And we love them so much!!! Léola reads the book and sings “Old MacDonald.” I’m sure these will be the source of much songs and fun to come! Thanks for everything today, so great to see you.
Goodness, they are incredibly adorable & the duck’s beak makes me smile.
OH my goodness i love them! how long does it take you to make them?
Well now that I have it kind of figured out, they are actually pretty quick. The last two(dog and horse) especially went really quick.
So cute Missy! I made a bunch of these out of craft felt and I do like these better.ps Hannah loves Jolly Barnyard too!
I think those are my favorite thing you’ve ever made! I want to make 5 little monkey finger puppets.
missy, would you e-mail me? I would be very interested buying a couple of sets if you were interested in making them to sell.
id love to buy a set or two!! terribly cute missy! and i was just reading through some of your blogs! they r great 🙂
