Tu Cute

My heartfelt apologies go out to all my Europe friends on Facebook who had to endure my whining about the incredible amount of selection around here for any kind of shopping. Right now, any shopping trip for me is overwhelming, takes me forever & I don't get 1/2 the stuff I set out to purchase. It's a combination of not finding exactly what I'm looking for, price comparing & just taking too darn long to look at everything.

Give me a break, people! We've been overseas for 5 1/2 out of the last 8 years & I am waaayy out of practice.

Anyway, I did find a Michael's & a semi-decent Walmart & easily found the materials to make a really cute Valentine tutu for MiniMe. I know. There are hundreds of other things PCS-related that I should have been doing, but I chose to play with tulle & ribbon instead.

It was totally worth my time, because look how adorable this turned out:




My next tutu will have some kind of purple. Just because. And, tomorrow, I'm making a run to IKEA. Wish me luck!

Warning: The Ikea is next to Potomac Mills Outlet Mall. Wear some seriously comfortable shoes...both Ikea and the Mall are HUGE! I used to be exhausted and I used to having "shopping stamina" back then. Hugs, Heather

That is WAY too crafty. . . I just don't have the crafty gene, so I am highly impressed!
