Yo!

Oh how I used to love MTV back in the day...you know, when they actually played music and showed videos? My favorites were Headbanger's Ball and Yo! MTV Raps.

A couple of months back, I found a great t-shirt (at Old Navy, of all places) and knew exactly what it must become:



Do you like it? I LOVE IT!

And so does my cute and happy girl.

Emm-Eye-See Kay-eee-Why (M.I.C.K.E.Y.)

My Lovely Assitant became an official fan of that famous Mouse last October when I look her to Disney on Ice. (I was so pleased that it was Mickey, and not one or more of the Princesses!)

When I told her we were going again in February, she asked for "a Mickey dress that is blue-my-favorite-color." And that is what she got!

I used the same pattern as for this dress and this dress, and made a freezer paper stencil for the mouse silhouette. I added some dots. Why? Because I like them!

The result is a dress she loves almost as much as the mouse himself.

Upcycled t-shirt dress

Made entirely from old - I mean upcycled - tshirts, this was a hit for St. Patrick's day.

My girl insists on wearing this dress often. Luckily, it is one of my favorites, too.
