I recently found a really cute bedding set at Toys R Us called the Kids Line Dena Happi Tree collection.  It has owls, squirrels, birds, and hedgehogs; all the things I love to make!  I love the pinks, yellows and blues that this set is colored in, so I decided to make a set of bookends similar to this bedding.

Usually I would mod podge on some paper flowers, but because this set has so many flowers and colors to it, I decided to try painting on some leaves and flowers using some stamps that I had.  They worked really well, and I just cut out a flourish in brown paper with my Cricut machine to use as whimsical looking branches.

I’m looking forward to giving the hedgehog a go in the future.  I love that it’s the aqua blue color in the bedding set, so I think it’ll be really cute on a set of bookends!

If you’re interested in these bookends you can check them out further in my Etsy shop here.  They would be a super cute addition to a nursery or little girl’s room, and are a great baby shower or gift idea too!
