car mats shout outs

In honor of Made's





I thought I would share my collection of car mats (and other mats) that I keep in a folder on my computer called...well, car mats. what else would it be called?  I think Almost every single one of these would make the most awesomest gift
these are all Serving Pink Lemonade:

This is one giant mat...but she made it in 4 seperate pieces so you can take it on the go

so clever...so cute. love target.






okay...they don't all have to be cars right? Maybe I should call this ACTIVITY mats.


this is just awesome fabric..can't get easier than that!


there are double sided so the possibilities are ENDLESS!
(P.s) great gift idea!)


well, she got the idea for this one...from me. (I'm blushing really!) It looks FAnTASTIC!


love the train set....love the circle.






love the travel sized versions!



well, this isn't exactly a mat...but I love it all the same. My kid would flip for this!



man...this just makes my jaw drop!

she just made some roads....so you can set it up however and whenever and whereever....and out of levi to boot!


love this giant version from this mommy loves

spray paint on a tarp...AWESOME!




she gives a little credit to me....but this is so above and beyond I didn't dare link it to OTHER girls with glue guns...ammmmmmmmmaazzzzzinnnggg.



so cute~ I love looking at all the ideas when I'm coming up with one  of my felt activity mats!!!

  3. THANK YOU. You've completely inspired me to craft for myself (and kids) as opposed to focusing all of my craft time on making things to sell in my Etsy shops. I just discovered your blog today & am blown away. Absolutey love it!

  13. Thanks for including me in your featured car mats!

    Mine was actually just a test run to see if the tiles idea would work out, I originally wanted to make it out of plastic canvas and do 3-D houses and stuff. So I was BLOWN AWAY when I saw that other plastic canvas one someone made! And there's even instructions to boot!

    I just may have to re-visit my original plans and get it going! Thanks for the inspiration!

  16. Thanks for the feature lady! My son and his friends are still playing with the plastic canvas car set. It was a lot of work, but was definitely worth it - lots of quiet hours have been spent playing with it!
