Craft: Hug and Kiss Pillows

This is a good craft to do with you child!  It's great to make two, one for the child, and one for someone like Grandma, Grandpa, or another friend or relative.

What You Need:
4 pieces of felt, which ever size you'd like the pillows to be(enough for 2 pillows)
2 or more pieces of felt, for names
Tacky Glue
Polyester stuffing

Take the two pieces of felt meant to be the main colors of the pillow.  Glue three of the sides together, leaving one open for stuffing, which will be the last step.  With the other pieces, cut out letters for each of the names that will go on the pillows, and glue them onto the pillows.  You can also add things like xoxo, hearts, or any other cute things that your child wants to add.
Wait about an hour for everything to dry, and then stuff the pillow with the stuffing, and glue the final side closed, and clamp it together.  I used potato chips clamps.

These pillows are great because you can chose any colors or designs that you want!  Be as creative as you and your child want to be with them!
