My Husband is a Dentist


This isn't the reason why I made this little tooth fairy, but isn't she cute? I found the tutorial/pattern here. I followed the pattern pretty closely, except I added a ribbon binding on the top of my skirt after experiencing difficulty attaching it the way the tutorial explained. I'm not sure the button-eyes are my favorite. I might figure out something else for the eyes the next time. The buck teeth are cute, don't you think?

Right now she rests on my OttLite, but will soon be gifted!

Cupcakes

My friend taught me to make these lovelies...aren't they cute?


My friend created these and doesn't want me to share with the world...so if you're interested, email me and I can give you the details! (by the way, they aren't real cupcakes...it's lotion inside! Cute gift, huh?)

By the way, I apologize, the cupcake is sitting on top of my scriptures. I realized that afterwards.

Tile Coasters

These little coasters have been floating around the craft blogs. Have you seen them? Super easy, fun and cheap! Since I'm not much of a kitchen-lover, I actually made lots of these for Christmas give-aways (for some reason, I can't find the pics of those ones right now...) In fact, I was asked to teach a small group craft class on making the tiles! Here's the video tutorial I followed:

Video Tutorial


We made sets of 4. Each person paid $3 to cover supplies (napkins, polyurethane, modgepodge, foam brushes, tiles...which were $0.16 at Home Depot). If you're interested in making some, I recommend shopping at Tuesday Morning for napkins. They have a lot of variety and great prices. (Actually, instead of napkins, I used tissue paper for my Christmas tiles...options, options, options!)
