So a while back at my old job we could get any dress from the store for 60% off and since we didn't really have any of the dresses I liked yet in our store I just got a plain black strapless dress because I didn't want to pass up that deal. Well I don't really like strapless dresses so I decided to add straps to it. I was going to just add plain black straps but ended up getting the wrong shade of black. So me & my mother went to Hobby Lobby and were looking at the fabric and she had the brilliant idea to look at the ribbon. I found this flower ribbon and fell in love! Ha.
I also added the flowers at the bottom. I was going to make them but we decided to just get some already made ones that have pins on the back because it was cheaper.
I'm pretty much in love with this dress!!!
I also got this little pattern and fabric/material set a while back at this cute little store near Atlanta called A Scarlet Thread (this has to be the best store I've ever been into. I walked in and literally stopped two steps in and my mouth dropped after seeing all the wonderful fabric. LOVE IT. And the people there were SO nice and helpful too!) and I finally made it tonight.
I'm pretty proud of it. I think it turned out really nice.
And my mom and I picked out a pattern for a new purse for me to make for her. I'm nervous but excited to make it.
All in all. Pretty swell Saturday.
