For making felt gingerbread men all you require are Felt, Fiberfill or cotton balls for stuffing, Assorted buttons, fabric paint, small safety pins, Wiggle eyes, Small Jingle Bell, Ribbon or yarn, Glue, Needle and thread and Scissors.
Cut out the shape of a gingerbread man on a piece of brown felt. Make sure there are two identical pieces. Stitch the two shapes along the brims leaving the inside of the shapes hallow. Attach a ribbon loop to top of the head for hanging. Leave a small area open for stuffing - about an inch. Stuff with fiberfill or cotton balls. Seal the open end. Distribute filling evenly by tugging with the finger. Paste Wiggle eyes or assorted buttons and paint the mouth with fabric paint. Make a small skirt by wounding a floral material round the waist of the female gingerbread figure.
