Life is an adventure and I am an experience junkie! Here is where I throw stuff out there, some of my notes ... some things I have noticed....how God works in my life, show off my creations, and mention my shenanigans. I just generally let my mind leak and come out thru my fingers right onto the blog page and out into the universe.
~ ~ Sew ~ A ~ Thon ~ ~ We did it! The sundresses and other items are packed into 8 suitcases and off to Liberia. To find out more info about the ORR click on the photo above to go straight to their web site! Below a photo of the girls in our handywork!
So...OK............, we saw some beautiful shoes in the most recent "In Style" magazine. My daughter was looking for shoes to wear with her wedding dress this summer. There is not a chance that we could afford those designer dreams... go look them up on page 394, lace treasures!!! So I had a bit of a creative brainstorm. We went to the bargain shoe store and purchased a plain pair of white strappy pumps for $10!
The end result are these beautiful designer inspired pair, using ..... my old and stained, wedding dress... yep the backs were covered with the cuffs, and the toes took some of the lace from the top. We made some little rosettes from the tulle, and put shell buttons in the middle, those are on the top of the heel area. I am not sure if we are finished with the layers of lace, but I had to take these photos. WOW ! and it was so fun!

Terry, Is there anything you can't do?? These are amazing! The best part is the time a creativity spend together. Mom and daughter. I hope I get to do something like this with my daughters someday!
