Napping with the Pixelated Princess

Kindy starts in just a week and a half and a towel for nap/rest time was on our list of items to send to school. Though the ease of buying a princess towel was tempting, I had to go the more difficult route.

Meet Sleeping Beauty.  Yes, a videogame style Aurora.

(She’s hiding from the camera.)

Welcome to Kindergarten.  Now put your name on e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g.

Some detail.

There are two skin tones, three pinks in the dress and three golds in her hair.  It was pretty difficult to pixelize such a complex drawing that had so much dimension.  Getting Mario at the right resolution is a *lot* easier.  The hardest part was the eyes but I think they came out ok.  Defintely better than some of the earlier iterations of her.  I won’t share those.

Liam had to test out the blanket too. (Funny thing.  Liam is wearing his pixelated Space Invaders-ish PJs.)

Apparently he approved.

So Maeve is happily snuggled up with her new quilt in bed tonight.  I wonder how long it will take her to ask for one for home once this one goes to school…
