Still Prepping for Halloween.

I can not lie, Halloween is my favorite holiday, EVER. I love fall so much my living room is fall colors year round. I secretly pray the summer's will be short, and I crave the leaves to turn from my FAVORITE COLOR green into deep reds, oranges, golds, etc. This year the summer's in NC have been insanely long and the heat has been extended well into October. I am mad at this.

I seriously hate the heat. While most girls are ready to break out the flip flops and short shorts, you will NEVER catch me dead in shorts, EVR. :) For one I am chubby for two I anticipate the fall and the cool crisp breeze. I love nothing more then to not use the a/c, and pop open my windows while burning any fall scented candle.

So above is a photo of MiMi in the cat tutu costume dress I made her. So now MiMi and her cousin ( my neice ) will match, even if they are clear across the US from one another. hehe. And in two days I promise to post the tutorial for this costume. IT's too fun and easy not to share with my few subscribers.

So tell me, friends, what is your favorite part about fall? I DARE YA TO SHARE ;) <3

Custom fall tutu dress for a friend's daughter

Here is a custom fall tutu dress I did for a friend's 8 year old daughter. I will be photographing her in it within the coming weeks. I LOVE how this one turned out! I'll have to post a tutu dress tutorial later for those intersted in making one for their own daughter or friends, and hey with the holidays coming they make cute gifts for the little girls in your life:)

Halloween Costume I made MiMi!

Halloween is coming up way too soon. We're a little strapped for cash around this time, and all the cute Halloween costumes are near 50 bucks (I'm way too frugal to spend that kind of cash on a one time affair to swindle candy from neighbors).

So I took to ordering 200 yards of tulle, some some ribbon for 20 bucks and I bought a 5 dollar add on tiger kit from wal mart. (The ears/tail).

I had been dying to make another tutu dress for a while now and so I put together this costume for MiMi in under 2 hours. (It's light orange, black and chocolate brown - which appears more of a clay red by the way).
