I saw this little kid on Pintrest and again I felt like having a kid or borrowing one so I can dress him like this!!
Isn't he sooooo cute!!??
If you are childless like me but have a special man in your life, here are some items that may help him achieve this look. WARNING: Cute face not included.
I hate that overly shiny, faux satin fabric! It looks cheap and accentuates all your body's imperfections.
Sure these girls look pretty but it's too predictable. I've seen this dress a million times.
Prom is probably the only moment that teenagers get to really look their best. The event is glamorous and only happens once in a life time. For me it's more of a red carpet moment than a chance to look like a pageant queen, even though a queen is crowned. I'm thinking more Academy Awards than Toddlers and Tiaras.
It's possible to look like a million dollars for only a few hundred or
less. It's also important to get a dress that's right for your body
type.
For a Pear Shaped Girls- Smaller at the shoulders and wider in the hip area with a waist smaller than your shoulders:
This is my newest creation! I love the new cosmic print trend on clothes so I thought I would make a vase with a similar print. I used a wine bottle and acrylic paint. I love how it turned out and I'll probably make more in different colors.
I've been living in my husband's home (our home) for over 5 months now and the throw pillows were killing me. My husband didn't like them either but they were the ones that came with the furniture he bought and what straight man is going to go to Marshall's or Target and pick up prettier throw pillows? Not mine. So finally I got so bored with them that I decided to do something about them.
One fine morning I woke up, had my oatmeal, got in my car, and drove to Joann's Fabrics. I searched and searched through the clearance section (I'm on a budget) and finally I found this awesome blue fabric. I had been searching for months for the perfect pillow fabric and I finally found it!
This is the Before
This is the After
Here's how to make the solid print pillows.
Here's a quick tutorial on how I make the chevron pillows.
First, I cut two 13x20 inch rectangles out of the white fabric and taped over them with painters tape. I used the tape itself to space out the lines and drew a small dot with pencil where each point of the arrow should go.
I used a makeup sponge and acrylic paint and dabbed it in the white areas between the tape.
I dampened the sponge first so that it wouldn't absorb all of the paint. You can do this by running it under water and squeezing most of the excess water out.
Then I sewed an 8x20 inch rectangle of the printed fabric using a straight stitch. Let the paint dry before you do this. At least an hour to be safe.
Then sew it to the back fabric, right sides together. Watch the video for more info.
I'm excited about my new pillows. I still have two more big ones to go and a small accent one to do. Let me know if you have any suggestions on what colors would look good with these pillows.
I just had the weirdest dream and since I've always wanted to record them I'm just going to start blogging about each one as soon as I have it so I won't forget. Anyways, in this dream Sybil from Downton Abbey had her baby with the driver (forgot his name), but they live in the 80's. Mary and Edith went to visit her and she and Branson (yes! I remembered) live it Queens. I'm driving an old Toyota pick up truck through customs while Mary and Edith are sitting in the back. Mary is wearing a crazy acid wash denim jacket with shoulder pads.
That's the end of my dream. Tell me about your crazy dreams and if any tv characters pop in.
Yesterday I Googled Theeverythinggirl and got a bunch of different websites. So you may be wondering, who is THIS everything girl? For starters I'm a homemaker, in other words I don't have a job but I love to craft and cook and fashion! Oh how I love fashion. I surf the internet and what I post on my blog are things I like. Secretly I wish I could be Martha Stewart. That woman thinks of everything and knows how to make and cook everything. I want my blog to be a melting pot of creative ideas. Plus I love sharing where to find all kinds of different clothes. If I see it on a celebrity and I like it I'll find where to buy it and post it online. Hopefully I can organize my ADD brain and make this blog something worth looking at.
