A Tropical Refashion


Recently I was asked to decorate for a tropical-themed church activity.  Besides the decorations, I wanted to make a dress for the event also.  What started out as this....


...became this...





If you would like to see more of the dress process and a few pictures of my DIY palm trees made from cardboard tubes and brown paper lunch bags, you can head on over to Second Chances by Susan.  Thanks!
