Well, I am not sure what got into me--I get these ideas and kind of challenge myself. And then I create something and when it turns out good--I am really pleased. I made toddler pillows for 2 of my nephew's birthdays this past week. They both turned out really cute.
The first one I used the party invitation as my guide and this is what I came up with. I think my nephew will really like it--though he was too excited about his birthday to really take any notice. His parents (both lawyers) commented on how it was copyright infringement and that I could be sued. Though they did thank me fo the pillows as well.
Well, I thought it turned out really cute and plan to make another one for Jonathan. He will LOVE it! The first picture is just the pillow-case and the second picture is the pillowcase on the toddler pillow (half of a reguar pillow).The second pillow-case I made is for one of my very favorite nephews and my daughters best friend. I wanted to do something really nice for him because he is just such a good kid and I knew he would love it! I found a picture on-line for his--the funny thing is, I didn't know that the black things on his legs were tires until I got to the birthday party and saw the actual toy!! Funny! When he opened it, he was very excited and exclaimed that it was even his favorite color. All of the little friends around him were petting the pillow oohhhing and aahhhing. It was really adorable and made the work very worth it. I love to create things and do things for people when they really like it. It makes it really fun to do and makes all the time and effort well worth it. The first picture is the pillow-case and the second picture is the pillow-case on the pillow.
