We did two days of Disneyland, so of course, Ruby needed two days of outfits. I already showed you the
Belle Dress. I was sad because we never ran into Belle for a photo. Better luck next time!
For the second day, we dropped the Disney princess stuff and went for full-on FUN. Because looking like a polka dot explosion is completely acceptable at Disneyland (actually, if you are a baby it is acceptable anytime).
T-shirt dresses are easy-peasy. All you do is add a few inches of fabric to the bottom of a t-shirt. I also like a little gather, so I cut the fabric 1.5 times the width of the t-shirt. The length of the skirt can vary - I think Ruby's skirt was about 4 inches long after hemming, and her cousin's was about 6 inches long. The flower was made using a
Make It and Love It tutorial.
Of course, the girls needed coordinating leggings (
pattern by Lil' Blue Boo).
Ruby's cousin is a big Minnie/Mickey fan. Minnie's face was made with the Silhouette heat transfer. Before cutting, I edited out her bow so I could add my own fabric bow to match the skirt.
Ruby was a real trooper all through Disneyland. Her favorite stop was definitely the little petting zoo in Frontierland. She would grab the goats' ears and laugh hysterically. I love big baby laughs. Oh, and did I mention that Oscar rode the Matterhorn? He was one tough cookie.
Hurray for Disneyland! I really do love it. I'm sure you are sick of hearing about it, so back to non-disney crafts next week. :)
