Well it's taken me longer than expected, as most projects do but I'm so happy to check this one off my list. It's a dress up dresser for our little bug. I'm working on a couple dresses, tutus, jewelry and some other fun accessories to hopefully fill it up in time for her birthday.
This project was super simple and there are some tutorials out there on the web or even better, Pinterest. You simply take out the drawers, I left one for shoes and other accessories, paint it and attach some fabric to the inside. I'd say the fabric was the hardest part but once it's full of fun stuff you wont even tell it's not perfect. I kept mine neutral anticipating it may go in a fun playroom one day but you could do all kinda of fun colors.
Stay tuned for fun posts on DIY costumes/ dress up items!

To be continued...
My latest project before....
I'm so excited! You'll have to stop back to see how it turns out. It's not going to be an ordinary painted dresser either. Cant wait for it to be done!

Girl's Pillowcase Nightgowns
Well, I feel like a bit of a dud for not posting in so long. I've kind of fallen out of the blogging vibe lately. That doesn't mean I haven't been busy crafting though!
For awhile I was hooked on crochet and now I'm switching back to sewing. Especially sewing little girls clothes. My daughter is at the perfect age for making her all kinds of cute little outfits.
One of my latest projects were these sweet little nightgowns made from old pillowcases. I love them. I wish I could make one for myself. ;)
You can find the tutorial here at Prudent Baby.
You can easily alter the pattern to make the perfect size for your little girl. You can switch them up as I have too..with sleeves, without sleeves, shorter, longer.
They are just the cutest. And comfy too!
