Need Craft Gift Idea for One-Year-Old Girl |
|
|
I've been invited to my one-year-old niece's birthday party in less than two weeks. I made a promise to myself that I would make ALL my gifts in 2005! So I need an idea for something I can make quickly. I have lots of craft supplies -- yarn, fabric, scrapbooking, paints, wooden plaques, polymer clay, plus all the basics. Please give me any and all suggestions you can think of that can be produced quickly.
Thanks! zballoongirl

Let the one year old be the "crafty" one! I've had lots of success making craft buckets for kids. Get a lidded plastic container (with a handle is best) and fill it with art supplies: big crayons, pad of paper, finger paint, washable markers, glue stick, stickers...

Or...make a sock puppet! Just make sure that everything is sewed on securely. Wouldn't want little fingers to pop little google eyes into little mouth.

I made this "Craft" for my one year old neice, You go to the fabric store and buy 1 patternd piece of fleece mesuring 1 1/2 yards, then you buy a matching solid color mesuring 1 1/2 yards. You need a large work space (clean floor works best.) You need a ruler and scisors (large pair) You lay the fabric on top of each other and cut 1inch wide slits along the blanket. then you cut 3 inches long = (like that equal sign) DO NOT MOVE THAE BLANKET< DO NOT FOLD OR ANYHING, If you do that the blanket will be ruined and the fabric will be useless. Then you tie the slits together ( one solid and one patterned) Then you have the perfect blanket. My neice loved this sooo much! Good luck

Many years ago someone gave me a bread dough picture frame with my child's picture in it. I still treasure it some 15 years later. The whole thing is probably 3.5 inches in diameter.

How about a homemade book. Use a photo album from the dollar store or ziploc baggies stapled together at one end and covered with tape. You can do an alphabet book with magazine pictures for every letter, a counting book, or even a book of relatives if you have family photos. Embellish with your scrapbooking stuff. Or make a bowling game out of empty 2 liter bottles and a plastic play ball.

How about a fleece blankie. No sew-buy a length of fleece at the fabric store, fringe the edges, or buy 2 contrasting pieces, put them back to back, fringe and tie corresponding fringes together for a double thick fringed blanket. There are also lots of really cute printed panels that you can use to make cute stuffed animals, wall-hangings, etc. for her.

A yarn octopus would be fun. Use soft cotton or a styrofoam ball for the head, and cover with yarn, and then braid the 8 legs.
