It all started with a pair of tights...
Clara had a cute pair of tights that needed a brown skirt. I searched high and low and found no brown skirt. So I went to the fabric store and found some material and made up a three tiered skirt which turned out so cute I made a Halloween one and a fall-type one, and a purple one... then a friend of mine wanted one for her daughter and said, "You should sell these at a boutique!" And the senseless part of my brain thought "Yeah!!! I could do that!" And the not-so-senseless part of my brain said, "Uh...you are going on a big vacation in 2 weeks and you won't even be here for the boutique and that's a lot of work, so no, you shouldn't do it..."
And so here we are, 2 weeks later, leaving for vacation tomorrow, staring at 16 (I told myself I'd only make 10) cute little twirly skirts of various patterns that did turn out quite adorable. Then, to add to my too-much-to-do list, I decided to make bows to match them all. Hope it goes well at the boutique! BTW, here are my shout-outs...because I am not the original twirlyskirt/bow creator. I looked online to find examples of twirly skirts and then tweaked them to how I wanted them. The bows however, are all credited to MELISSA!!! She sent Clara a bow for her birthday, and that's what I copied. Thanks Missy, do you want a percentage of the sales?

Stop by my mom's over the holidays. We will probably be here most evenings. For Christmas, I think we'll go to Brigham City for a couple of days, but then I'll be back at work, so we'll all be here.
