All dressed up..





Came "home" (summer house)from work, it´s about an hours drive. Beautiful weather 25 degrees, so I´ve been siting outside making a few more dresses with the things I picked up at home today.
I´ve displayed the two new dresses with some things, I bought from Marianne, an elderly woman who is selling a lot of her old miniature stuff on her website. I got it today in the mail at work. I think the table is SO outstanding.
The dresses are made of two of the corsets from Else, Annies mother, I just added a skirt, some trimmings and some straps. Take a look a the backs of the corsets, so detailed. Get ready for a summer party!
I am planning on making a charleston dress with the fringes of one of the trimmings, I got from Sans...it´s still in my head ;-) And then I need to add some matching shoes and bags..

    You're becoming a mini fashionista Susanne! What a great idea to use the corsets as a dress bodice, they look absolutely fantastic.

    You're right about that table, its gorgeous.

    These are all adorable dresses! Your lady will be the best dressed in town and smelling sweet with perfume from her lovely vanity table! I love the finish on the table with the mix of white, gold and blue - very pretty.
