Seems like this is the time of year for PARTIES!!!
Saturday night I attended a Halloween party at a friend's home. It was fun to listen (and sing along with) to her family singing Karoake...even little Morti was out dancing on the floor - he's a little ham.
Recycling...remember my $15 Second Chance Prom dress? When it came to recycling it into my Halloween outfit, I had a tough decision to make - my dress could easily have been made into an angel costume with the addition of wings, but I decided to be transformed into a Greek Goddess with just a couple inexpensive props. The hair garland was made from gold leaves from the craft store and wrapped with a little wire around the stem for stability. Every Goddess has to have her gold snake armband - a quick snake could be made with gold chenille stems, some wiggle eyes and a felt tongue.
I'm always thinking how I could take what I have and transform it into the next project...call me imaginative or just cheap...
Happy crafting!

Thanks Fashion Girl!
ReplyDeleteI love to find bargains! Hard telling where this dress will end up next year!
I've been invited to a Valentine's Dance - kind of like the Second Chance Prom. I have to start looking for a dress for that one!
Oh, I just got an invite to a 50th anniversary party for Frances' parents - time to look for another outfit!
Thank goodness I like parties!
