Easter Dresses

I was in search of a sailor dress for my girls for Easter and came across this all cotton dress at Walmart. It is not sailor, but it does have the blue and whites I wanted.

I was excited because they were cheap, or I mean inexpensive.  I felt like they were a little to plain for Church, especially Easter Sunday.  SO…

I added some tulle to the bottom and a cute sweater from Childrens place and it is looking much more DARling!  Claire just loves being my model, for real!

The big girls needed new shoes and I wanted to get them all matching but Claire has gobbs of shoes in every color so I didn’t want to get her new ones.  The girl at Payless talked me into these cute little flower clips.  So I bought the plain white cheapy (inexpensive) shoes for the big girls and dressed them up with some fluff.

There was no way I was going to spend 5 smackers on ONE of those little puffs though so I just made them myself for about 3 dollars for ALL six of them.

 

I can change them out and make more to match with different dresses, I’m so glad she showed me them.  They just have a tiny alligator clip on the back, so we could actually put them anywhere, hair, shirt, little brothers paws ……wherever. 

It was a super fun and quick project, I haven't been in front of that sewing machine enough lately!

Most importantly the girls loved their new dresses!

(the boys weren’t left out they got new navy ties and were just as excited as the girls were!)
