Can't remember when I bought this tube top from Forever21, but I know it was a long time ago. For some reason I never parted with it. Now I am grateful I didn't! I imagined my little Key running around in the sun wearing, a yellow dress, smiling at me :) So... off I went, measuring and cutting here and there (but not much), and attaching cute, braided straps. I originally saw braided fabric from my friends darling necklaces.
Still looks a little plain, but not sure if I'll add. Perhaps a brooch or some flower???

Thanksgiving
I was thankfully able to put something together for my Key, despite my long Christmas gift list, and my list of Christmas decorations awaiting there turn for "the machine of wonders." I'm VERY excited for the turkey and all the fixins! Oh, and I'm equally excited to get our home ready for Christmas! YAY!!!

Thrifty Finds
I found Miss Molly (the name I gave her), and I was so excited to see this beauty on someone. Since I'm preggie, I will give this dress up, but I definitely won't mind if it stays in the shop ;)

Chicken Scratches
Key's new summer dress turned out differently of what I originally intended. Trying to emulate my drawings, that look like chicken scratches, perhaps is not the best way...but either way, it turned out better than I thought! It still has its handful of mistakes, but considering, I was grateful it wasn't a total flop. I love her in the new dress...well, I love her in anything! She was especially sweet while I used her as a model.

Mums Day Dress
Key's Mum's Day Dress sprouted in my head based on a skirt I have. The bottom half of the dress I tried replicating. There was one annoying mess up but I didn't have the time or patience to go back in fix--so it just had to do. This dress can also grow with her for a while, I just have to un-seam the skirt from the top and lower the skirt. Hopefully, for that, I will have the time and the patience! I would love to make her a Daddy's Day dress, but I'm just not feeling 100% yet. Maybe next year :)




I made and added a little fun flower brooch.

Summertime Freshness
I made this dress with very light material. I actually didn't realize how light it was, until I was having some trouble putting it together. After some hassle, it turned out to be a fun dress to be out in the sun with. My little Key looked fresh and wonderful!





The bow in the back, made it especially fun...I guess bows are just fun!
