felt food
I have a love of play food: felt, crochet, sewn – whatever its all fun and gorgeous. I was reminded of the flickr play food group while reading green kitchen blog and admiring the spaghetti and crochet meatballs. (images from flickr play food group and green kitchen)
There is a book out called My Favorite Felt Sweets
This book is so sweet and luscious and fun. All the things we love about Japanese craft books – but in English! Excellent images and illustrations. The projects are very life like – from tarts and cupcakes and cookies, doughnuts and pancakes to Japanese treats like rice cakes, sweet bean buns, moon cakes and fortune cookies, as well as sweet place mats and serving mats to go with.
There is also a great holiday section – just in time for all the holidays coming up. Gingerbread and christmas cakes, petit fours and chocolates. And if that wasn’t all enough – some cute little felt boxes and containers for your treats to go into. Perfect for decorations, gifts or just for fun.
