Sweet Tooth Fairy Fondant Tutorial

My daugh­ter, Anabelle, lost her first tooth a cou­ple of years ago when she was five and so began our rela­tion­ship with the mag­i­cal Tooth Fairy! There are a vari­ety of tra­di­tions that fam­i­lies fol­low for their tooth trans­ac­tions and it’s worth think­ing about ear­ly on so that items can be made/ordered that will make the Tooth Fairy’s first vis­it a smooth one.

Our lit­tle fairy decid­ed that she would leave a lit­tle tooth pil­low {that she just might have com­mis­sioned from Han­nalah Designs’ shop} a few days before she lost her first tooth with instruc­tions to insert her tooth in the lit­tle pock­et on the back and place it under her pil­low. Then, when switch final­ly did occur, she left lit­tle notes, includ­ing a receipt and reminder to brush her teeth {that she might have designed with clip art from Kel­ly Med­i­na Stu­dios}, along with mon­ey! Oh, and she also tends to sprin­kle a lit­tle glit­ter under her pil­low for that extra touch of magic.

I have also seen oth­er fam­i­lies who have minia­ture doors where the Tooth Fairy could pass  through to col­lect teeth and leave sur­pris­es, such as these adorable fairy doors from Paris Cab­i­net. Aren’t they just so stinkin’ cute?!

I cre­at­ed a fon­dant tuto­r­i­al on the Craft­sy blog for this sweet lit­tle Tooth Fairy top­per for a fun way to cel­e­brate this mile­stone in your fam­i­ly’s lives. Head on over for the step-by-step instruc­tions to re-cre­at­ing her and bring gap-tooth smiles to your kid­dos’ faces!

What are your fam­i­ly’s Tooth Fairy traditions?
