Matching basket

I went round the charity shops in search of something suitable to use as a carry case for photos and bits and pieces for my festival exhibition. I wanted something that suited the dress, and would protect the photos... this is what I found! Just painted it gold, might affix some flowers and ribbons too!

Flower arranging

It's all ready to go now, with fastenings and flowers all in place!

Matching hat

Because no outfit is finished without a hat! I covered a charity shop hat, and recycled a headpiece from a previous creation (which was previously attached to a headband), and transferred it to the hat. I will probably add further flowers too

Bodice detail

Doesn't quite fit the mannequin... And it's more pink in real life, not red...I'm really happy with the sleeves :-)

Bodice hooks and eyes

Have the fastenings done, which is always a bit of a chore, so glad about that!
