Think stuffies are just for kids? Think again! Our felt flamingo stuffie is such a beautiful home decor item. We styled ours two different ways to give you some ideas. First, we placed our flamingo stuffie on a stack of books on a mantel next to a candle holder and some palm fronds. Everything in this space is white or neutral so the greenery and pop of pink from the flamingo stand out. But, if you prefer a more colorful space where the flamingo blends in, you can simply switch out the white books and the white vase for more vibrant colors. You can also replace the palm fronds with a tropical flower, like our felt hibiscus.
Of course, you can also craft this felt flamingo stuffie as a soft toy for little ones. Or as nursery decor. It’s a very versatile stuffie, as you can see!

Could I make the stuffies from fleece instead of felt to make them huggable and washable for babies? I would love to make a farm and menagerie for my first grandchild, due in January.
Yes, how sweet!
