Finally uploaded some pics from my phone. Here’s the dress as it was last week, I think it was:
I had the lower sleeves and stomacher just pinned on there – I’ve since gotten them sewn in and, well, it’s pretty much done. Once I try it on I might find something that needs to be tweaked, so I’m calling it 99% at this point. I’ll put it back on the dressform and try to take some decent pics with a real camera tonight.
and here’s me with it on last weekend – best I could do, Chase wasn’t home. I’m too wide for the mirror!
Shoes:
I had bought a pair of shoes a couple of weeks ago to re-cover in my fabric. I did one of them and wasn’t all that happy with the way they looked. I pulled out my wedding shoes and they matched my silver fabric pretty well, so I decided to just use them instead. Save me some time and trouble – I just added the bows.
I made my necklace last night:
Pretty happy with it. Also made earrings today.
The main thing left is the wig. I started playing around with it today. I’m a tad scared of it but I have a plan.
Next week my mom is going to come over and pin my hem up on my underskirt & petticoat while I’ve got my shoes on – they’re too long and I can’t seem to get them right. I just need to tack my underskirt to the petticoat waistband and get those hems done…
