Ahh, the first holiday of the fall/winter season is here! Today I will show you what I’ve been working on for the past two days, and the final product that I’ll be wearing tonight!

I then cut out two long strips of red and pink felt, put them in some hot, soapy water, and proceeded to pull and pull and pull until they took on a rippled effect.

I sewed the two pieces together like so:

Then I took the green felt and cut out two ovals and four strips. I sewed the strips on and painted lines on the ovals.
Today I went and bought some shimmery makeup, green napkins, and mailing tape (I wanted green Saran wrap but they didn’t have it, so I had to get innovative). After playing around with the napkins I nixed the idea and decided just to wear whatever green I could find.

After my shower I pinned my hair up into pincurls:

I glitzed up my face

Put it all together and now I am a…..

Flower!! Happy Halloween Readers!!
