Today is Saint Nicholas Day. I made one of these felt hand puppets for my great-nephew, Brandon (4 years old) and one for Nicholas, my 2 1/2 month old grandson. They found these in their shoes this morning (placed outside their bedroom doors.) The hat, mittens and belt are removable.

You are just soooo creative :) Those are wonderful my friend. :) Santa Claus is coming checking them more than twice this year :) Have a wonderful Sunday :)
ReplyDeleteGreat exercises to keep the mind fit, hope you are getting out in that cold and snow jogging to stay physically fit.
ReplyDeleteThese are way cute! You know, you need to open an Esty Store!

Those are very cute...and creative. Two of my grandsons, 6 & 9 yrs old, learned about St. Nicholas Day in pre-school and have been into it ever since. I think they get ornaments in their shoes.
ReplyDeleteNo hair in back? Or a face on both sides?
ReplyDeleteI'll bet the kids have fun with them.
These are very cute. I've never heard of St. Nicholas Day before. We definitely don't do this in NZ.
ReplyDeleteHow cute! :)
ReplyDeleteToo darn cute ~ gets the crafter in me all revved up. Better go find my knitting needles or crochet hook! Better yet, maybe my sketch pad. No, wait ~ I think I have some paints around...or beads...or some fabric somewhere. What to do, what to do :-)

OH, what a great idea! Thanks!!
ReplyDeleteAdorable Nessa! Those are two very lucky children to have someone who loves them so much!
ReplyDeleteTotally cute idea!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE IT NESSA! What a cutie pie Santa!
ReplyDeleteThat is so CUTE. :-) There's nothing better than making toys and getting them. Some of my all time favourite toys were home made.
ReplyDeleteHappy St Nick day to you! ;-)
Nessa. Made with Love.
ReplyDelete(words won't do this blog justice. thank you for sharing.)
You are a great aunt/grandmother.
ReplyDeleteMy great aunt knit wonderful Christmas stockings for my kids. It is a thrill to get them out each year.
Cute cute CUTE! I'm sure both boys will LOVE them! It may take grandbaby a little longer to fall in love with his....
