Monster Art Totes

We recently had some friends (twin boys) turn 3-years-old. Their mama is very crafty and always puts a lot of time, thought and care into entertaining. We were super excited about their monster-themed birthday party, but unfortunately The Dreaded Snots invaded our house and we were forced to miss the party. Boo!



In between wiping noses, I did manage to squeeze out these two art totes and get them wrapped and delivered to the party on time! They are very simple lined tote bags made from fabric from my stash. The monsters are made with polar fleece and eco felt. I stuffed each tote with a sketchbook and the monster teeth are made of six mini twistable crayons. There are extra little pockets next to the "teeth" that could accommodate a few more crayons, markers or pencils.
