Making the Tooth Fairy’s Job Easier One Pillow at a Time
I had a special pillow with a pocket to hold my lost baby teeth when I was little, so when Finn lost his first tooth, I made him one, too.
I didn’t realize just how much easier it made it for the Tooth Fairy until my nephew lost his first tooth. The story my brother told of how difficult it was for the Tooth Fairy to retrieve a tooth that was actually under the pillow my nephew was sleeping on was so amusing that I almost didn’t want to make pillows for my niece and nephew. I finally decided to have mercy on the Tooth Fairy and make pillows for them. I also made one for Beckett, because his teeth should start falling out soon and I certainly don’t want our local Tooth Fairy to have to go through all that.
I thought about making some to list in my Etsy shop. There is so much to customize, though, that I’ve decided it would be easier to take orders for them here. If you are interested and would like more information, contact me through the form at the right or at csloan@subearthancottage.com.
