Christmas 2010 - in parts - part 2

What I made for the kids:

45 pieces of FELT FOOD!!!!
This is a small amount but I am so proud of myself!

A FELT CITY:
Do you have cut outs in your family/living room?  I took the cut outs and made panels that are actually store fronts to the city I made a Pet Shop (which doubles as a pet clinic)
Behind it there are shelves and a stretcher and a dog pillow and I just noticed my bunny doesn't have eyes. Hahaha, Naptime will fix that!

A Beauty Parlor and a Dress Shop (my kids won't let me put it up yet)

I made a mini Post Office for the back of a bookcase:
To go with these different shops I made mailbags with envelopes that have removable stamps and they are all personalized. I made felt money, and felt bandaids and wraps and felt packages.  There is still more to make but this was the basic stuff.

A Grocery Store:


I made a diaper bag for my girls and their babies.
The kids all got specific dress ups like a zoo keeper, 2 doctors, and a grocery apron.
I really went crazy this year with my sewing machine but it was totally worth it because they have not left the toy room in 2 days.  I couldn't have done any of it without Tara or Chrystal so thank you to them!

There are a few tweaks that I still need to make now that I have seen them play in there but I will add to it gradually and watch them get excited every time they get something new for their City, which they have named ZonaZona City.


I also am proud of my new and improved toy check out system.
 Here are the labels for each box.
It has worked out beautifully so far.

What do you think?

    I love it all, Val! AWESOME job! You're amazing.

    I keep toys separated in bins/tubs like that also, and only one tub can be out at a time. It makes life so much easier!!
