DIY Valentine Catnip Mice

Posted on February 2, 2013 by Kat

Show some love to your feline friends this Valentines with these DIY catnip mice. The ones I made are in my Etsy shop for an instant gift.

To make the mice you will need

Cut your felt sheets into quarters
Fold each quarter in half and cut out 1/2 heart shape with center of heart on the fold
Cut half of your felt harts in half (for the top pieces)
Leave half of the squares full hearts (for the bottom pieces)
Cut a 3′ long piece of embroidery floss
Sew 2 half hearts together with a whip stitch, sew a mouse nose, eyes, and whiskers
Sew the two hearts together, filling with catnip mint before sewing shut
Add a tail if you wish

Looks like Rose loves her Valentine
