So I found these on the curb a few weeks ago. Yes, they are the front and back of a crib. Do I need a crib? No, but the wood looks really good on these and I thought that surely I could do something with them! But I haven't come up with any good ideas. Some of the ideas I've come across are: garden trellis and bench. Neither of which would be useful to me.

So I am asking for all of your creative genius!! :)

What do I do with these?????

4th of July is coming up quick and I need to get busy making a couple of dresses (one for my daughter and one for my niece).

I have had The Olivia Top pattern forever and I have made so many variations from this pattern! It is a staple for little girls clothes!

All I did was cut the main front and back of the shirt and add how many additional inches I would need to make it a dress. Sewed front to back. Roll hemmed the top (on front and back). Added bias for the shoulder ties and then shirred from the top all the way to the arm pits 1/4 inch apart.

SUPER EASY! :)

And I think it turned out so cute! I am going to make one today for my niece who is a year old. I can't wait to get some pictures of them together! :)
