Play Food: Donuts

My sister Perry helped Boo and I make these toy donuts when we were visiting NC recently. They look almost real!

Materials needed:
Foam chair cushion
Spray paint
Puffy paint

 

To make these start with a foam chair cushion insert (most large craft stores carry these):

 

(more after the jump)

First, trace a circle onto the foam the size of a large donut:

 

Use a serrated knife to cut out the circle from the foam:

 

 

Using sharp scissors, carefully trim the edges over and over until the shape of the donut becomes curved:

 

Once you are happy with the outside shape……

 

…..trim out the center:

 

Use a tan spray paint to cover the foam and let dry:

 

Puffy paint works perfect for the icing! Just apply it as you would actual icing:

 

Pink and chocolate icing…..yum!

 

Add “sprinkles”……

 

……or more “icing”:

 

Perfect for play!
