These were fun to make! The kids & I have been wanting to make them for quite a while, but just never got around to it ... until now :)

| Fuzzy Slippers Younger "D" Made |
The very first books my older son loved - before
Scooby Doo Mysteries, before
Diary of a Wimpy Kid - were the
Nate the Great mysteries. They are really wonderful books! I love them myself. Everyday, for school, my son had to read for 20 minutes and write a short paragraph about what he read. So everyday we would sit together and read ... starting with
Nate the Great and the Pillowcase. It was an adorable book. The mystery happens at night. Nate has to get out of bed and search for the missing pillowcase in his robe and slippers ... his
Fuzzy Slippers. LOL and all
Nate the Great books have "extras" in the back - recipes, puzzles, crafts ... instructions on how to make Fuzzy Slippers ;) And we always said we would make them.
It's a very simple pattern you can find in the back of
Nate the Great and the Pillowcase (I'd type it all out for you, but truthfully, I don't think I'm allowed to). So here I'll just say that I used a pair of Flip Flops, Faux Fur, and Hot Glue.
They were a lot of fun to make, very easy, a fun family craft, and very useful as well! The kids love wearing them around the house!
This is an adorable pattern I found on the Lion Brand Web Site ... A Coin Purse! So cute and pretty handy for your change. Mine is actually big enough to fit my change, my cell phone, driver's license, and credit cards!
