Can you tell what any of these are? I hope so!

I've made some more things for Spencer's kitchen. I made an apron, a chef hat, a tablecloth (for the table and chairs from Ikea he already has) and a play washcloth and dish towel. I found the pattern for the chef's hat here.

Creativity Anyone?

This is some felt food I made for Spencer's kitchen he's getting for Christmas. I'm going to make more later when I get more felt colors.
I found the link for the carrot here and the apple here

Christmas is Coming!

I know, I know, Thanksgiving isn't even here yet! But this time of year is my favorite! I've been good and only listened to a few Christmas songs (and that was when I was making gifts so it seemed appropriate). I can't wait to go shopping with my mom, grandma, and cousins on black Friday. It's so much fun!!!
But I do miss Christmas at home. Somehow there was just a Christmasy feeling in our house. My dad decorated the whole house and my favorite are still the tin oreo boxes. There would be Christmas music playing and most likely a candle burning. I could go sit by the fireplace and get warm. It's different in your own house. I wish I could get that same feeling. This year, Spencer is going to be really into the presents I think. I want to get him a play kitchen so that he can be entertained while I cook. He loves to help me cook in the kitchen and play with the bowls and stir things.
