Easy Peasy Patches are fuss-free, no-mess embellishments that you can stick anywhere, from stationery and scrapbooks to handmade cards and organizers. These permanent stick-on fabric patches make it a cinch to personalize almost anything, including clothing, bags, water bottles, MP3 players, and more. There's no ironing or sewing required to use these patches–just peel and stick!

A mom of three, creator Andrea Winarski came up with the idea for Easy Peasy Patches when her son tore a hole in the knee of his pants. Rather than mend it the old-fashioned way and leave a noticeable seam, Andrea decided to use a patch that her child would love to show off at school. After many tests, Andrea developed a patch that could withstand 75 cycles in the washing machine without tearing, fraying, or peeling off.

Applying Easy Peasy Patches to your projects is a breeze. Simply place the patch where desired, then rub the edge of the patch firmly. Because these embellishments are made from fabric, these patches add texture and dimension to a variety of paper crafts such as party decorations, toys, and gift wrap. Some of the designs that caught my eye were: Fireflies (a blue and gray starscape); Goop (a friendly green monster); Butterfly; Retro Floral; Popsicle; and I Love You.

These eco-friendly patches are quick and effortless accents for all of your favorite projects. Designed with kids in mind, Easy Peasy Patches can be your child's introduction to mixed media. With a wide array of designs that appeal to boys and girls, your junior crafter is sure to find something that expresses his or her personal style.
