My friend Maro is doing something very lovely this Christmas, she is collecting gifts to give to children whose families are having a hard time and buying presents is going to be difficult for them. She has been in touch with a school teacher of an elementary school and after figuring out which kids would need a present from Santa she called others to contribute too. The gifts will be for little boys and girls and although the girls are fairly easy to please making something for boys is not an easy task.
I thought of making super hero brooches from felt so with a few in mind I made these, they are almost done by now! The spider man one is really cool and I have to say my 5 year old nephew was very impressed with it! The only one I haven't finished is Mike (from Monsters Inc) I like the first version better so a change might happen there.
I want to pack them in cute paper boxes, I'm thinking of finding paper from comics to make them. I'm hoping to finish them until tomorrow and I'm hoping they'll be liked by the kids :-)
Have a great weekend,
Aleka

ReplyDeleteSanta will make some kids realy happy this year!
Such a lovely idea, I bet the boys will be amazed by your super heros!
ReplyDeleteBatman has always been my favorite, but your spider man is actually the cutest - I must agree with your nephew on that one, he's the expert, of course ;)
They are amazing! You are so talented!!!! The kids are going to be thrilled!!! Thank you so much for doing this!!!!
ReplyDeleteThey look great and what a wonderful gesture for someone less fortunate.
ReplyDeleteThese are great. I know lots of kids who'd love these. And some adults too.
