Cami’s birthday is just around the corner (and she keeps talking about it), but this four year old gift basket we created a couple of weeks ago for a little friend of hers.
This little monkey here I made following a free pattern I found at mmmcrafts. I used a bunch of fabric that I’ve had lying around for ages that I thought I’d never find a good use of. The main fabric, I was just so thrilled. I had despised it sitting in my fabric pile for the past four years, but it actually ended up being the perfect style for this project.
Camille wanted to make another book like the one from Noah’s party & we had extra pencils from the party.
We stuffed all of them inside a bolga basket and she had an extra painted a card that we cut and attached to the front with some yarn.
I think it turned out great!
