Georgia Peaches!!

We are officially moved to Atlanta! I am back up and running. Here are a few things that I have had the pleasure of making!

Before we left Oklahoma, we hosted a going away/bday party for my son...Super Hero Masks were one of the favors we gave away. Super Hero Capes are Custom!! Below are a couple of the girl versions of the masks.

 Another Super Hero Birthday 

Below you will see pictures of a Paparazzi Shade. I was fortunate enough to be invited and participate in a "Celebrity Gifting" for Reese Witherspoon's new little bundle. This is what I chose to send for her! I think it will come in handy. ;) 

Lego Man Tees

A friend's son is having a Lego Themed Birthday Party and she so kindly asked if I could design a shirt!! Of course I can!! Above is the inspiration. I recreated the design and I think the final product is pretty darn close.

Monster Tooth Fairy Pillow CRAZY!!

I have been CRAZY with Monster Tooth Fairy Pillow Orders! I ran a "Introductory Special" on them until the end of February. The have evolved into quite the amazing item. I have added a Girl Monster Tooth Fairy Pillow version, it has a 3inch ruffle around the pillow, she even comes with a bow and eyelashes too. The original boy version now has Piping around the pillow as well. Again, they are 11inches square! Here are a few of the finished orders I have done in the last few weeks!! If you would like to order one please email me at kalicocrafts@gmail.com!

Monster Tooth Fairy Pillows

These are my FAVORITE thing to make right now...they are just TOO CUTE!! My son GFunk even asked for one, and he is not easily influenced...TRUST ME. He refuses to wear his Super Hero Cape....Any Who, thought I would share the story of how the Pillows came about and how I make them.

As most of you have now heard of the wonderful site called Pinterest. If not you are TOTALLY missing out on INSPIRATION! So many awesome ideas, recipes, styles, etc, etc. That is where I found the cutest picture of a Tooth Fairy Pillow. It was SO cute but, the design seemed familiar. A friend who's saw what I had pinned asked if I could make her a couple. HECK YEA I CAN!! So, the next day I first searched my hunch that I had seen that Monster design else where....sure enough the site I use to get some of my embroidery/applique` designs from they had almost the EXACT monster. So, rather than infringe on the "creators" wishes to not sell, link "her design" I decided to take the inspiration of her pillow and make it my own. Which I do often.

Here is a comparison of the two designs:

Pinterest Found Design

Design by Planet Applique

I downloaded the design and stitched it out all the way (I wanted the inside of the pocket (mouth) to match the outside. I try my best when creating to think of all aspects and pay CLOSE attention to details.

After the Monster was all stitched out onto the pillow material I created the pocket (mouth).

I traced the stitched mouth to make a template and cut it out wide enough to turn in the sides to stitch. I reinforced it with fusible interfacing to make it sturdy and stiff. Machine Satin Stitched the pocket (mouth) to the Applique Design!!

 DONE!! I LOVE THE RESULTS!! Can't wait to make some for GFunk and CChunk (my littles).

If you would like to place an order for the above design please email me your request at kalicocrafts@gmail.com. The finished size when stuffed is 9 inches square. $20 plus shipping as an introductory price!! 

CAMEO Giveaway
