*Princess* Christmas dress my daughter calls it

*Princess* Christmas dress as my almost 3 year old calls it.
The material i used is a polyester/satin like, which made it a little hard to sew. You have to stretch it a little bit , since the material will stretch. * I need to put an eye hook above the zipper however just can not find a needle to sew it on by had at the moment.* The Pattern i had used for this dress was Simplicity.com pattern 5827 dress A. However i changed the pattern design a little. I added 2'' sequinned band at the bottom. As well as cutting it to fit the neck line and the end of the sleeves. I had also found a pink button that you really cant see in the photo well with her intial A. I had sewin the button on the front of the dress to personalize it. Just so cute she calls it her princess christmas dress.

Craft, A christmas wreath is fun to do

Making a wreath isn't to hard. Its actually relaxing. Well to me anyway lol. I had first wrapped the points etas around and then the acorn decoration you can kind of see. Then i had used some of the decoration ribbon two different kinds. The pretty gold and silver. I had wrapped them around and tied into bows. Tada my new Christmas wreath.
Happy holidays.
