Clothing Renovations

More wizardry with the sewing machine. This time I took a really cute pair of pj's that were a gift from MIL and the girls wore only once. maybe twice. They did not have the non-slip stuff on the bottom, so they were awkward to begin with. Note to mommies-in-waiting: do not buy any sleepers without the non-slip stuff on the bottom of the feet. Unless you are a carpet gal. Also try to avoid the snap closures, and get sleepers with the looooong zippers (good quality of course, if not that zipper will drive you to distraction), much, much easier to get your little one dressed quickly, and easily. Also, my arthritic neighbour-but-the-girls-call- grandma hands have a lot of trouble doing up the snaps. Nothing is safe from the Singer, or my scissors. these ladybug sleepers were calling to me.
BEFORE

One snip with the scissors, one quick hemming and voila they were transformed into cute little tops....no more worrisome slipping, and they were spared from entering the dark basement in a box labelled, "outgrown" for just a wee bit longer.

AFTERAnd of course this post wouldn't be complete without a picture of the Chicklets sporting their new tops.

Alyssa pointing out the items she would like on the grocery list.Sophia takes her grocery shopping very seriously.

Just when you thought I had forgotten, thought you were safe, I make my move. Seems I need to tag a few victims, I believe the number is 4 ,to reveal the inside of their homes, remember mine? If you have already been tagged there is a reason you're being tagged again.

Hit List:

1. Monkey King (she has a hidden creative side)

2. CrazyLady (play the game baby)

3. Never Too Many (except tags seems like) ditto Crazy's comment

4. Bubble Queen (I'm sure there's a princess in there somewhere)

Have fun tidying, I know I did. Smooch to all.
