QUIET BOOK

I made this quiet book for my nephew as a Christmas present a few years ago.  Yes, it has taken me 2 years to finally put these pictures up here.  Then again...life has happened and I've neglected my blog for a long long time :( 

Anywhooo....I scoured the internet for quiet book templates and only found a million or so that I loved!
You must check out these awesome blogs if you are mustering the courage to start crafting a quiet book.

At the time I made this, I had no motive whatsoever to photograph all the steps and put them on a blog.  So that being said, the picture quality is terrible and all you get to see is the finished stuff.  I know all you crafty people out there can easily improve on what I've done just by looking at the pictures.

 This page really lights up!  I found some t shirt lights at Hobby Lobby and with a 40% off Coupon they were super cheap!  I just pushed the lights through the holes in the felt, after I glittered it up.  Oh, I put a light in between layers of the fire, so it would light up too!  Happy Camping :)

Go UTES!

 
 The I spy bag is attached to the barn with a snap. That way it's easier to spy all the farm animals in there!  The list of animals to find is on the star.

 Yo Gabba Gabba!  My nephew's favorite show!  Match the color to the right character.  Also the characters are finger puppets, attached with velcro.

Go Fish!  I found this online and wish I could remember where I got it.  If you know...please let me know.  Little paper clip ends are sticking out of the top of the fish, and a magnet on the fishing pole.

 Mail Call!!!  The flag moves up and down and of course the lid opens.  I made small versions of all the families pictures or Christmas cards and put them in there :)

I have more in the works for my daughter...I'll try to get those posted before another 2 years go by :)
