Gift idea – how does your garden grow?
How does your garden grow?
These little activity packs are being given to all the small people on the nice list this year. Each activity pack contains a circle of artificial turf, 12 squares of colourful felt & a pair of scissors.
It’s a bit fuzzy felt isn’t it? Just a super cute gift idea that I thought you might like to have a crack at too.
You don’t need a “how to” … it’s really just a shopping list.
You’ll need to buy…
mailing tubes (I used 60mm x 420mm)
scissors (test they fit inside the tube)
A4 single page labels so that you can print the “artwork”
felt (I bought mine from Winterwood & cut the squares to size)
artificial grass (you want the cheapest nastiest stuff they have so that it grabs onto the felt)
You’ll need to print…

Knock yourselves out.

That’s brilliant! I made one earlier this year for my daughter to give for christmas, but I never thought about the artificial turf. I will add this to give her more variety. Great idea.
