toothies (the friendly tooth monsters)


since my nieces live so far away in the land of potatoes, i am always looking for ways to be close to them in hopes that they don't forget their "ya-ya." in recent weeks, caelan and riley have started the tooth-losing process of growing up (it is strange to think that they are now kids instead of babies). i came up with this idea that would make the tooth fairy excited to visit...friendly tooth monsters called "toothies." the girls can put their tooth in the pocket and the tooth fairy can exchange it with money in the belly pocket of the toothie. i am just crazy over the idea and the final result. in fact, before i even had a chance to send louski and raerae their toothies, i made my first international sale with one of the toothies on my etsy shop! the girls will soon receive their toothies and hopefully they love them just as much as i do.

all toothies are made of upcyled materials. many more will be added in the coming days as i have created a bunch of toothies, each with their own character and personality.
