I've always wanted to make dress up clothes for my daughters. I made an Elsa princess dress a few years ago that I enjoyed creating, but not much else since then. A few weeks ago around my youngest daughter's birthday, a lightbulb went off. You might remember from my last post that I created birthday table displays using inexpensive party decorations, including plastic tablecloths that cost about $1. As I was picking up the latest display, I got the idea to recycle the tablecloth into a play dress! The first one I made was from the pink tablecloth in the display shown above. I felt I had to create at least one more so they wouldn't fight over one dress, but it soon escalated to a total of four dresses that I made over the following weeks. I bought more tablecloths, solely for the purpose of making dresses this time. It was fun stocking up on different colors, hehe. I drafted my own patterns to my girls' measurements, and I had fun getting creative
On Monday, my husband and I celebrated our first anniversary. Yay! I can't believe how fast this year has gone by. I feel so lucky to be where I am today.
The official anniversary of our marriage is March 7th, but we actually didn't hold the big party until a couple months later, in May. By then, the weather was warm enough to celebrate outdoors, and it was a gorgeous, perfect day. Lots of love and laughter and sunshine.
So, here, enjoy a little spring wedding inspiration with some photos of our reception...
