Trash Bag Dress Project Update #3

Posted on 18 May 2010 by Suburban Wife

Here’s another update on my Trash Bag Dress Project.  I spent hours and hours hand making all the flowers I’m putting around the waistband of the dress.  It took a little experimenting with the plastic to achieve the look I wanted for the flowers but they are so adorable I love them.

This is a single flower up close.  Once they were all completed they reminded me of the flowers on a leigh.  It took 28 flowers to entirely circle the waist of the dress.

This is what the waist band looks like once the flowers have been pinned on.  I wont be permanently attaching them until I put the sash piece around the waist.

My youngest daughter is holding the dress up for me in this photo so you cant get a true idea of what the dress looks like until my oldest daughter puts it on but as you can see it is starting to really look nice now that the flowers have been pinned on.  Theres just a few steps left until completion.
