a little FACE-lift

an old woollen sweater,leggings which have become too short...so I cut the bottoms of the legs off to make shorts out of them.

Mr.R's shirts...getting tatty around the collar...so he gave them to moi...miss. I can use it...

whilst I waited for paint to dry (literally) I got the machine out and make some little birds...I love keeping things like all of the above...because I KNOW I will use it one day!

Little Miss J's Jeans had shrunk (or she's growing!), oh and she had 2 holes in the knees!

...I refuse to by a new pair of jeans for her right now,and they still fit her perfectly around the waist...so...a little repair and lengthening did the job!

what do you think?

do you upcycle? Have any links for me? I'm thinking I could upcycle quite a few of their old clothes...

Hope you had a great Tuesday...I'm hoping to finish my Dad this evening...thanks for all the compliments!!

We're off for a couple of weeks...Tam will have to keep you posted with updates from the UK whilst we head SOUTH...(thanks Tam)
Our girls can't wait to see Minnie and Mickey, Winnie and Piglet...Daisy and Cinderella...it's been 30 years since I was there...I'm sure it's changed
DISNEY here we come.
ANY TIPS?? I would greatly appreciate them *smile*
I'll update sometime during the holiday.
I am SO excited! It's been a LONG time planning this trip.

BUT...we have a couple of days until we leave...and I still have a few brilliant vendors who we just love to mention from our Show.

A good friend, a Scandinavian from Finland, and Etsy vendor...and an ever faithful vendor at our Mamas and Chicks Shows.
Sarah from Lyyli makes custom T-shirts, Pajamas, dresses and even clothes for adults...you can visit her at HERE

The girls adore her clothes...so bright and because they're personalized...it makes them ALL the more special.

Another great reason to personalize clothing...no fights over who's is who's...as our girls grow, they're begining to be very similar sizes...their feet are the same size all ready...HOW CAN THAT BE?

So...by personalizing with Lyyli...eliminates ALL issues between our girls in that catagory!

I have many others who will be getting a mention over the next couple of days...

I look forward to reading all your DISNEY tips!

Thanks...
