I need recommendations for sellers on Etsy who do felt food! I've been looking, but it's really hard to tell the quality from the pictures alone, so I'd love to hear from people who bought and are happy (or unhappy) with purchases.
Also, I'm not sure if I should go felt or needle felt. Needle felt seems to recommend her being like 3 or 4 years old, but I'm not sure why. She's 15 months now and this will be for Christmas! Thanks in advance!!

No recommendations from Etsy, but is there an Ikea near you? Ours had tons of felt food and last time we were there, my 19 mo DD spent about 20 minutes playing with it. It was really inexpensive and looked to be decent quality.

We have some Ikea felt food and it's great but I LOVE (love, love) our HABA Biofino play food. We have both of these sets.

While they are slowly moving away from Etsy to their own site, I really love the felt food from this seller: http://www.etsy.com/shop/PixiekidsToys
Very good quality and a great variety. You can also follow them on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/PixiekidsToys?sk=info
We are part of their food of the month club and it has been fun getting a little surprise in the mail every month. I think the food of the month club is only offered through their Facebook page.

i'd love more...it's just so cute
(and squishy) it's not technically "felt" food, but the quality is great and it's very adorable.

GREAT!!! Thank y'all SOOO much!! Do you like the Biofino food as much as Etsy food? Here's what I'm thinking so far:
Ikea Fruit and Veggie Baskets
Biofino sweet pastries, chicken, hamburger or sandwich, and maybe petit fours (are these too much of a choking hazard for a 17 month old?)
Etsy milk jug, butter, eggs, breakfast set (pancakes with syrup, butter, bananas, strawberries, whipped cream, bacon, sausage, and eggs), sliced fruit, corn, potatoes, sweet potatoes, and Christmas cookies (because they are so darn cute!!!) I'd also like some hot chocolate but the ones I like the best aren't available until after Christmas
Am I going way overboard?
Do you have any suggestions for plates/cups/cookware?

Ikea has some nice plates/cups/cookware."Someday, I am going to go to bed without toys on the floor and sippys in my sink. Things will stay where I put them and I can have nice, fragile items on display. But when I do, I will look around with a wistfullness in my heart and miss the days where vibrant imaginations ran wild and there was evidence of life happening around me all the time!"
