Boy mum here, I made this and my 6 month old destroyed it in 10 mins 😳 so I remade it and sewed 3 times over the ribbons! Now it’s lasting much better! Thanks for such a clear tutorial and love the idea of using a cereal packet inside, very resourceful xxx
Excellent work! I'm 17, and don't have kids, and I've also never used a sewing machine in my life, but this was a fun watch none the less. Great tutorial!
Loved your video. You are easy to follow and I enjoyed the written instructions as well as the visual! Going to make a couple of these for our great grandbaby, who is due in August!
I just made one yesterday without checking any tutorials and im surprised at how similar mine ended up being! I used parchment paper though, and I'm thinking it might lose some of that crinkle sound with time, so I like your idea of cereal bag better. I think mine ended up very thin and hard to grab for a small baby, so I came to see if you used any filling. Apparently not. I will make sure to put a teething ring in the next one. I hope wooden ones are fine? I'll make sure to stitch a cross over the surface too. Ps if you don't have ribbons you can also make your own ones using fabric pieces.
Thanks for watching our video. That is a great idea for using fabric pieces if you don't have ribbon. In fact, it's a great way to use up scrap fabric. However, I would suggest if you use fabric to make sure to not have raw edges because the fabric may fray and baby could get them in their mouth.
Hi,m @@Needlepointers, yes of course that's a good point. I cut pieces approx 4cm wide, then you fold each side into the middle and then fold again and sew the edge. Not sure if I'm explaining myself here. That way it looks like a ribbon but self-made.
I'm sorry you are having problems making the baby toy. If the clips are not holding it in place for you, I'd recommend using pins. Remove the pins as you sew so you won't hit them. We also have a written tutorial here that may help: www.needlepointers.com/main/youtubecontent.aspx?youtubepageid=501
You can add a layer of flannel under the crinkle layer. This gives this toy a bit more body and softness and you will not have a slippery piece of plastic to deal with. I would make sure that the flannel is pre washed. It does shrink and that will distort the toy after a washing. I really suggest that all fabrics be pre washed that will be used.

Great job!
Does the iron not melt the plastic??
No, the iron does not melt the plastic.

Because project simple and easy instructions
Thank you!
Excellent tutorial
Glad you think so!
what temp can you iron the item on w/the crinkly paper inside? Is cotton too hot?
Thanks for watching our video on making a crinkle tag toy. Cotton is fine.
Also great for cats!
I never thought of that but it is a great idea. I will have to make one for my cat.
I've made several, and the layers shift horribly, so nothing stays aligned!! Help!!
Use pins to hold the pieces in place and remove them as you go
I'm sorry you are having problems making the baby toy. If the clips are not holding it in place for you, I'd recommend using pins. Remove the pins as you sew so you won't hit them. We also have a written tutorial here that may help: www.needlepointers.com/main/youtubecontent.aspx?youtubepageid=501

Me too! It never ends up perfectly like that!
I love this video! How would u wash? I have no kids so, clueless. Is this safe to throw in washing machine?
Thank you for watch our video on the tag toy for babies. Yes, it can be machine washed. However, you should let it air dry.
I think I can do this! Lol
Thanks for watching our video. This is such an easy project; I am sure you can make one or two easily.
I love it and where dud you get that fabric
Thanks for watching our video! The fabric I used was fabric I had leftover from another project. I believe I purchased it at Joann's.
Thankyou for the tutorial.. i have some leftover kids Bluey fabrics .. this will be great to make with the leftovers .🙂🇦🇺
I can't see the replies to this video. Are they blocked? I don't have this problem with other videos.
I am not sure why the replies would be blocked for you. I hope you enjoy making the tag toys!
@@Needlepointers it works now. Sorry to bother you. Must be my phone. Thanks for the fun tutorial! My granddaughter will love this.
