Felt craft projects are one of my favorite projects to create for my son to encourage imaginative play. This fun Felt Campfire Set with Marshmallows is super easy to make, easy to store and provides hours of fun for kids ages 3 and up. Inspired by the large felt campfire made for my son's Cowboy Party three years ago, I'm excited to share a smaller version for you to make using a few pieces from the Gigantic Fantastic Felt Sheets Set.

Next, cut the middle pattern and cut six flames in orange felt. Lastly, cut the middle pattern and cut six flames in yellow felt. You will be making six panels total.
Start by stitching the orange flame to the red flame. Then stitch the yellow flame on top to make one panel. Repeat, but make sure the second panel is facing the opposite way so when you place the panels wrong sides together, the flames match up. Don't have a sewing machine? You can simply hand-stitch them too!
Place the wrong sides of the two panels together and stitch the red felts together, leaving a small opening at the bottom for stuffing.
Stuff with polyfil and stitch the opening closed. Repeat steps 1 - 4 with the other size flame "pillows". When you are done, you will have a total of three flame "pillows".
To make the wood logs, cut a piece of brown felt sheet in half. Each half should measure 4.5" x 12". You will also need to cut two 2" circles from the brown felt. You will need one half felt sheet and two circles for each log.
Fold the brown felt in half lengthwise and stitch the edge leaving an opening for the stuffing.
Stitch a circle to each end of the log.
Turn the log inside out and stuff with polyfil. Stitch the opening closed. Repeat steps 5 - 8 to make the second log.
Criss-cross the logs and place the flames on top of the logs.
Next, remove the small branches from the Bundle of Twigs and stick a Jumbo Foam Marshmallow on the end of the stick.
Get ready for roasting!
Set up a fun play area with a Tee Pee, Pine Tree Jointed Cutouts, Camp Sign Cutouts, Buffalo Plaid Pennant Garland and the felt campfire set for hours of fun!
