oh yeah, its been that kind of week. Chaotic, a little sloppy, but zooming right before my eyes. Hot damn, here are the best parts;
not mine
mine. Last Saturday was my friend's (Gigi and Ed!) wedding. So a couple of weeks ago I finally replaced my sewing machine and this is my first project. I started about two weeks ago with every intention to finish for the wedding, but as it turns out there I was Friday night, up til' 3 am working out the kinks. Her she is! To be honest, it turned out a little tighter and a little shorter than I had hoped but a little leg never hurt anyone. doesn't it look like the dress above? I didn't even see that dress until after I was gone with my own. so ha! I made the necklace, earrings and flower hair piece too! Seriously, wearing this made me feel like Serena Van der woodsen! I didn't take any pics, but I know a lot of people did, so hopeful I can post them soon.
moments before I started writing up this entry, I was sewing, up until the point I foolishly sewed right through my middle finger nail. I screamed for about two minutes straight! note the bandaid. Last Sunday night I had dinner with my family for my mom's bday. after the meal, my grandma pulled out this ziplock bag full of jewelry. She had recently taken it out of the safe deposit spot at the bank, anyways i came out of if with these! Family heirlooms! I've never had any before but these are from Aunty Helen whom I've never met, but apparently everything she buys is real.
