DIY Valentine Catnip Mice

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

• colored felt sheets
• embroidery floss
• 1/4 C (2oz) catnip mint per mouse
• sewing needle
• sharp scissors

• 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
