Toothsome Character

Forget the gossamer wings, wispy tutu, and flaxen hair — that’s so 2008.

This year we’re getting the job done without all that flittering and fairy dust.

Just slip that incisor, canine, or premolar into a Mindy and Lola tooth pillow, place it under her regular pillow, and head off to dreamland.

Each tooth-shaped pillow is lovingly hand sewn of cotton, fleece, and funky fabric remnants and then embroidered to add a little character. The handy pocket holds both tooth and cash safely.

No two are alike and special orders — colors, rotten teeth, whatever — are welcome.

Fairy unique.
