    Whimsical Gourmet (Etsy) Giveaway US/CAN (Ends 3/16)

    By 291 Comments

    Last summer I purchased my son a play kitchen with a huge assortment of play food.  Immediately I noticed how cheap the plastic food was and un-realistic it looked.  Now he doesn’t care too much, maybe because he is a boy, but I think it would be so much more fun to play with realistic looking food.

    Well an Etsy store called The Whimsical Gourmet creates adorable looking play food creations all at reasonable prices.  Attention is paid to details as she creates adorable felt play food in all different varieties.  Some of her selections are pastas, egg rolls, chocolate-covered strawberries, and more!  Her items look yummy and realistic as you check out the Etsy page.

    About the woman behind Whimsical Gourmet:

    I am Karen Robison, a 25 year old stay at home mother to a vibrant toddler. I’ve dabbled with being crafty off and on since I was a child, but just hadn’t found my niche.

    Last year I entered into a giveaway for a child’s wooden play kitchen and won! I decided to put it away for Christmas, which wasn’t for a few more months. I had a friend who had told me about felt play food, so I decided to try my hand at making some to go along with my daughter’s play kitchen. In November I taught a mini-class and did a craft show. I then decided to create an online shop on Etsy, just to see what happened. I sold my first order within 2 hours! I love my shop and I love what I do. I also love the fact that I don’t have to do it away from my child. It gives me joy to sit down, pour my ideas on paper, study the real items, and then recreate them into felt play food. Then comes the really fun part, my tester. After I was done creating the Deluxe Sushi Set, I gave a sushi roll to my 21 month old daughter. She immediately gave me a big grin and said “susi”. It made me really proud of my work, that a young toddler knew what it was right away. She clings to all my creations and tries to take them everywhere with her. She loves to “gook”.

    I adore the smiles I get when children see and play with my felt play food. It’s also great for their creative, social, and verbal development too!

    BUY IT: Check out Whimsical Gourmet on Etsy for her prices and selections! You can also visit her blog for a complete list of available items. She will also create custom listings if you want!

    GIVEAWAY: One winner will win their choice of a Deluxe Sushi Roll OR an American Pancake Breakfast.

      My favorite is actually the American Pancake Breakfast, a close second would be the Chinese Shrimp or Tofu Lo Mein Take Out Box and Fortune Cookie Set – Felt Play Food.
