I Love Being A Girl!

There are sooooo many blogs that I have been using lately for inspiration.

I got the idea for my sweater Here. I didn't do a whole lot to it- just added the ribbon collar to this thrift store find. But it was such a sweet little touch.I loved the color too.

This above pics are a little truer to the color that it actually is.

(I made my skirt outta some fabric that I had from Craft Warehouse- The first article of clothing that I made without a pattern. Since I didn't have a lot of fabric, I didn't have a lot of options, but I like the way it turned out.)

Then, I first saw this belt HERE. Stephanie has amazing fashion sense. But I was so excited when I saw the how-to for the belt HERE! (love the green belt they used!)Seriously people, I just got out one of my 2 glue guns and glued the eyelet that I already had to the back of this belt. (I did sew the front eend over though to avoid fraying) So easy peasy! I only wish that I dipped it in starch. I used spray starch and it helped a little, but the eyelet moved and fell around the front of the belt- I wished it stayed up a little more like a normal belt- but some people probably like that natural movement of the belt.

Then, I happened to be flipping through some blogs that I haven't checked out lately and came across my felt flower HERE. While I was there, I noticed that Grosgrain also is having sweater embellishment month. I think I am in love with her ideas! Family, house cleaning, Christmas shopping and sleeping are all getting in the way of me sitting and recreating these so- adorable sweaters. (A small addiction-eh???)

Anyway- I loved my yellow flower so much that I made a red one for the holidays too.

Hope inspiration finds you this month.
