My youngest loves the outdoors and loves going to Forest School. So when she asked for a campfire for her woodland Birthday party, I wanted to make one. I found this wool mix felt craft pack (of 9″ squares) from the lovely Pixie Rose on eBay, the colour way is called Autumn which had the perfect colours for making a campfire.
I started with the logs. I machine sewed some wood details – circles on the dark brown and lines on the lighter brown. I joined the length with the felt inside out to make a tube of felt. And then inserted the cardboard tube from wrapping paper into the middle to make it solid. I then hand sewed round beige patches on the ends.
For the flames, I just gathered the red, orange and yellow felt squares and sewed to secure them together.
Super easy but very effective. Perfect for roasting marshmallows!

Happy making!
