ABC

Since Christmas is over I can finally blog about the stocking stuffers I made for Bubba. You might remember the blog post I wrote about them being a surprise for my mom and grandma. You can read that here. I have been so anxious to show everyone what it is!!


Magnetic Alphabet!! I made these cute little magnets out of assorted fabric, batting, and sturdy magnets. I just love them! They are so much cuter than the boring plastic ones. Not to mention, they are safer for young children as well. I can definitely see myself making a few more sets of these in the future. Maybe for birthday or Christmas gifts.

  7. Megan--
    Here's another idea to build on for these letters. (love them btw) I like how you did the colors--that way you can teach not only the letters but colors too. You could also do numbered fabric for some of the letters to teach numbers AND you could also do shapes fabric on some of the letters. That way, you can help them letters, letters, colors, numbers and shapes all on 1 magnetic alphabet! That is, IF you have those types of fabric. Just a thought... :)
