My younger two kids are at the age when we are losing teeth, so I thought lets make some cute tooth pillows to add to the fun of losing tooth. So instead of the generic tooth fairy, we made tooth monster pillow, which are the shape of a tooth, but flipped upside down! Add a little pouch in the front and make it all out of fun colors of felt and you are set!

Here is a video on how to make these fun pillows
A few really simple supplies are needed to make these cute pillows. First I start by making a paper template of a tooth, which is the monster flipped upside down, then a few fun colors of Kunin felt, some buttons, and a needle and thread. I also used some Joy Iron on Varsity letters for the back of each little tooth monster so my kids would not fight over whose was whose, let's hope that works, hehe.
I started off making the orange pillow as my practice one, but shortly after my son came over and asked to learn how to sew. AWESOME!!! He is 8 and I fully feel that everyone should learn the basics of sewing with a needle and thread. So half of this little orange monster he sewed all on his own!
I then make the blue one for the video, I changed up a few things, like sewing on all the teeth and altering the shape a tiny bit, but really these are so easy and fun it is a great starting off project for kids to learn how to sew. They are both filled with Fairfield World Poly-fil as a stuffing!
So to stop the kids from fighting we put the first initial of each kid on the back of the pillow. They are Joy Iron on letter in the Varsity font and perfect for this project! The blue one my son picked for himself, so he got the black B on the back.
My daughter picked the orange monster as her tooth pillow, so she got a red C on the back.
What color of tooth monster will your little one pick to make?
