I love the idea of giving homemade gifts to Mikayla. Last year we made her a kitchen set (that my nieces and nephews now enjoy). This year I had the idea to make her a teddy bear dress up doll with different outfits, but when I started to make it I just wasn’t "feeling it". Then I ran across a picture of a felt Mr. Potato Head here. I didn’t wanted to recreate this exact model (mostly because I don’t have felt or a sewing machine), but I did want to come up with something similar. Here is what I came up with:
I just cut out a basic potato shape out of brown felt and then "accessorized". I even made some male items to make a Mr. Potato Head instead of a Mrs. I was very pleased with how it turned out and think that Mikayla will love it. I am also excited about how easily this will travel with us and keep her entertained on long trips!
daughter in law, you are so creative,, Mikayla will love it.
