Happy Halloween!

So I now I've been promising catch up posts- they will come. And they will be good.

But I just wanted to brag real quick.

So if you didn't notice Abby is not quite the girly girl, granted she loves to wear skirts and shoes. But she never quite hit that "I adore everything Princess" phase.

Her previous Halloween costumes have been, chicken, pumpkin, witch, alien, and a black cat. This year she decided to be a FAIRY!

We found some fabulous wings at H&M baby. Then I learned how to make a Tutu, went to the store and bought the stuff and here is my finished product!









So I got my idea from this blog: http://plumtickled.typepad.com/plumtickled/2007/08/tutu-tutorial-t.html plus some tips from a fellow tutu maker. So if you decide to make one, they are easy and I can share my tips!

Wow! I am impressed that you figured out what she wanted to be let alone have the costume done. We usually save these things till the night before or day of at our house. Are we procrastinators? You betcha!

Your tutu turned out fabulous! I showed Olivia and she wants one too for Halloween. I'm just glad there is minimal sewing! Did you sew on the ribbons or tie those on too?
