Julie's 1st Halloween Costume

This is Julie's 1st Halloween costume made from an old sheer curtain. Yes you heard it right, from old sheer curtain!

I wasn't driving yet and shy to asked hubby to drive me to the store. A week before Halloween I was folding the laundry and the old curtain caught in my eyes and got a bright idea! I even laughed at myself. To make the story short I grabbed the curtain and lay on the floor. I didn't use any pattern, I just use my imagination. The wings were made of manila folder wrapped with left over curtain and hot glued with a lace and orange ribbons. She had a match hair clip too from the ribbon scraps.

What do you think? Hubby was really surprised about it. He said "very creative indeed!"

The Sprit of B.E.R ... my Christmas Creations '07

Here are my 2007 Christmas Creations. GA here it is, your requested. Sorry ha natagalan. It's a perfect timing though it's September 1st wink*.

Friends don't get mad at me for posting this so early; I'm not trying to remind you that Christmas is around the corner already. The fact is, times flies and there's nothing we can about it. sigh***

2007 - Christmas Decoration

[Recycle from 2006 decortaions...I re-create some of them just to give a new look.]

This is the only tree Julie allowed to decorate wink* [tree given by my friend Lorna] inside the china cabinet to give some color. How I wished I can complete my Lenox Nativity. I could've but I just don't want to buy the one made from China. All my Lenox collections are made from USA...I wanted to buy the 3 kings & kneeling angel but don't have extra dough for it yet. Someday... In some reason I just couldn't get rid my x-mas tree skirt. This is the 1st x-mas skirt I made when I got my sewing machine. I used brown grocery bag for the pattern. simple swag. I really didn't go crazy this year i guess. what do you think?
