Felted Play Food - single onion

Hand-Sewn Felt Onion

A simple, seasonal staple for everyday play.

An onion is in nearly every meal a child watches get made, which is exactly why it belongs in the play kitchen. This one stands 7 inches tall and 2 inches across, softly sculpted from wool felt and stuffed with 100% sheep's wool. There's a bendy wire running through the green leaves, so they can be curled, straightened, or bunched, and they stay where a child puts them. Gather it into a harvest, set it out at a market stand, or let it live in the pot with everything else.

It's part of the Dear Mother collection, handmade by Denise, Paige's mom. Each one is cut, sewn, and shaped by hand, so no two come out quite the same. Small variations are the point rather than the flaw.

Ways to Play

• Add it to a play kitchen, market stand, or pretend harvest basket.
• Bend the leaves into a curl or a bunch. They hold the shape.
• Let it stand in for the real thing while you cook, so small hands have their own onion.
• Spot clean only.
