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..

Easy living?

Summertime has finally arrived here, and we are enjoying ourselves outside. Unfortunaltely we have discovered that our house is severly sinking and that it has gotten a lot of damages that needs to be repaired. Don´t know when yet, but we had to pack a lot of stuff down including my mini houses, and we are staying as much as we can in our summerhouse. I bring a little stuff along and try to make some minis here and there. This time I´ve been focusing on dresses, making them outside in the sun among the roses. I only had some materials from a kit, that I didn´t like very much, so I went freestyling with the things,I had in hand, some laces, a napkin and some trimmings.
