I am an artistic, blissfully married, work-at-home mother of two amazing children. I am a creator and can't stand idle hands. You will usually find me with a project or two, drawing, sculpting, sewing, swimming, biking, fly-fishing or dreaming away while sitting outside playing with my children in the sunshine.
As a mother, I am all too aware of the cheap, mass-produced, lead-laden toys that have flooded American toy stores - we have all seen the recalls of thousands of toys in the news in recent months. In effort to rid my children's toy box of some of these toxic toys, I decided to take matters into my own hands (literally) and create my own toys that are handmade, safe & which foster the imagination that today's toys sadly, seem to have lost.
I am a Ricks College AA Alumni and have my BFA degree in Fine Arts from BYU Hawaii - specializing in sculpture and ceramics, so sculpting fun food toys just comes naturally to me!
I make all felt food by my hand and from my trusty sewing machine. Items are double and sometimes triple stitched in high-stress places for durability - as my kids have proven, if a toy doesn't last then what good is it?
So, I bring you Bug Bites Play Food - I hope they will bring you and your children many hours of fun and joyful play!
Handmade Felt Food Toys. Little food for Big Imaginations! Safe, fun and educational toys for kids and adults of all ages.
