Karyn and Katie have talked me into joining the grooviest challenge. Karyn calls it the "Use What You Have, Stash Buster, I Will Not Buy Anymore Fabric No Matter How Dirt Cheap it Is" Challenge. Hum. Sounds right up my alley.
I got right to work on The Challenge this weekend. I was cleaning up the house, sorting and organizing when I ran across two random pink push up bra inserts. I grabbed them up and headed for the trashcan when I suddenly stopped dead still, mind working furiously. Ya know what popped into my head? The Challenge. It would be a shame to throw away such pretty pieces of fabric. Couldn't I make a creature out of these things?
Meet Skivvy the Bra Wonder. Skivvy was born in Macon, Georgia. Fashion is her passion and she truly is a fashionista. Skivvy is made from two pink push-up bra inserts. Skivvy’s dream is to some day visit the fashion runways of France. Until then she will have to content herself with daydreaming over the latest fashion magazines.
Skivvy is available for sale in my shop. I'll be uploading lots of cute creatures all this week.
Skivvy is just too, too adorable! She's so cute, I can't help but laugh & smile...And what a clever way to use those bra inserts! Can't wait to see what other cuties you'll be dishing up this week! :o)
