Disboutiquers Part 15 Kids Disney Boutique / Customs Clothes psst..we sew

Karen- Do you think if I hold out until Black Friday (yes...I am starting to prepare for BF) I could get a good deal on the Cricut? I am thinking I will wait and buy it then if I can save some cash!

And Happy belated birthday!!!!!
 
Yippee!!! I love sewing things for my kiddos for our trips to "The World" I am :cool1: that I found this thread.

Right now I should be working on my dd's halloween costume. :eek: She's decided to be Wendy Darling again thsi year but wants the dress Young Wendy was wearing at the end of the Tinkerbell movie. So I am altering last year's dress by adding lonfer sleeves and some satin edging. I'm thinking this will give the right effect ::yes::

Welcome! :cheer2: We do like to see old photos to. hint ... hint...
 
Finally finished a few things.

Here's DD7's new first day of school outfit.

And here's the pink Skull skirt I mentioned a few days ago. I ended up adding a stripe of black lace on the plain pink because it was a little too plain.

I love it; the black lace really brings it all together!
Everything that has been posted is simply DARLING!

That Mickey bandanna dress is great! I remember the 1st one and loved that too. hummm wonder if Nik would wear that? She may be too old :(


I use embroidery thread.



Yes she wants you to go over the edge of the fabric.

I:love::love::love::love::love: my over casting foot. I actually use that foot on every cut piece of a garment to stop the fraying and give it a fake serged look since I don't have a serger. I tis a pain in the but but I have become kind of OCD with it I have tried to not do it but I just simply can't:rotfl2:


Here are 2 outifts I made for my BFF's twin's for their bday

These are great!

Well, with all this new fabric I've been buying I figured I had better find a quick way to get rid of some of my stash...a simple pillowcase dress with applique...sorry, no Abby to model this time :D Gotta whip up some more of these. They are so easy. Angie wants a Minnie one for Abby.

By the way, there have been some Amazing outfits posted lately. I really need to get my butt in gear and make Abby a twirl outfit. The Princess Cuties I have seen or sooo cute too!

Cute, cute, cute; the pink and black is awesome! What pattern did you use for the bags?

I think you could get a good deal now, you just need to keep your eyes out.

I've been looking for deals- and I've seen a couple, but they've been with people I haven't ordered through, so I'm not sure I should post them or not. The other day I found a Cricut Expression for $299.00 and it had 3 cartridges in it, including a new one called Stand and Salute. That was a really good deal, but again, I didn't know the person.

Would you guys like me to tell you whenever I see a good deal- whether I know the seller or not? :confused3
 

I just had to jump in and share a BAD dream I had last night! We were all ready to go to Disney World and Henry drove us to the airport. When we got there, I realized I had forgotten not only our Disney tickets, but our airplane tickets (in my dream you needed an actual ticket)! So, I stood in the airport crying. Somehow we were allowed on the airplane, but I forgot to pack the kids anything to do. So, they whined the whole way there. Then, when we got to the airport, there was no Magical Express. So, we WALKED to Pop Century. :rotfl: (it wasn't too far in the dream) When we got there, they didn't have our reservation. So, we slept outside in the grass. Then, I had to call Henry to come and pick us up because I didn't have any tickets for the parks.
:eek::scared1::scared1::eek:

It was such a vivid, real dream. I woke up thinking I actually missed out on my Disney vacation! :rotfl:

But for now, my only REAL drama is that I can't find a fridge swap for our dates! I REALLY want a fridge and I REALLY don't want to pay Disney $10/day. It would make our trip so much better since I'm going to be there with just the kids. If I had a fridge, we could get juice and milk the night before and put it in the fridge so we wouldn't have to haul them back up to the food court for breakfast.

At least you slept long enough to dream (or nightmare) last night! I didn't fall asleep until 4:30am, and the my DD called me at 8- so, here I sit, to tired to do anything but read the DIS, and let me tell ya......there's not too much new stuff to read if you've been reading it all night!

you could always use the cooler and ice trick for your fridge! It worked for us in days gone by. :laughing:
 
I'm sorry you didn't sleep well last night, Karen! :hug:

Do they sell foam coolers somewhere at POP?
I won't be able to go out anywhere and buy one because I won't have a car.

Scary dream!! I just wanted to pipe in about breakfast, I bring tons of granola bars. The kids love them! If they are thursty then I give them water. (They have their milk at the park with meals) And if you want milk, by the refillable cup on the first day and fill it with milk on the way to the park or go down and fill it up first thing in the morning. Just a thought!

Yep, that was my plan, too! Granola bars and other stuff like that for breakfast! We get the refillable mugs, I love them! But, I was hoping to avoid the early morning trek to the food court in our jammies with the kids for some juice. :rotfl: I wanted them to eat breakfast while I was getting ready so we could get out the door nice and early. We may have to change that plan, though!

If you do the grocery delivery I've heard they'll pick up a foam cooler for you. Not sure what airline you are on, but if it doesn't have checked baggage fees, you can check a cooler that has your food items and send it down on the plane and ME delivers it to your room. We traveled with a cooler once and it wasn't an issue (past them asking what was in it - in our case clothes, but anything that you are allowed to check would be fine in there).

We're flying on northwest and they charge $15 or $20 per bag/each way. UGH! I miss the days when you didn't have to pay to check your bags! We won't really need groceries since we'll have free dining.
 
Hello everyone this is for all of you from Marah. Her plane landed early this morning she was a little bummed the it was rainy and dreary in orlando.

I hate dreams like that.

We are staying at POP & are packing a foldable cooler. We will fill it w/ ice from the machines at night & just stash our drinks in them. We are used to moderate resorts w/ refrig. This will be a new experience.

Yikes! Scary dream.:scared1:

How about packing a soft sided cooler and filling it with ice from the resort? You can get juice boxes and milk boxes (is that what they are called) and keep them in the little cooler.

I hope a fridge opening pops up for you if you really want one though.pixiedust:pixiedust:

I got paid Saturday for babysitting a couple kids so I have a little extra spending money I am hoping to buy a few of your designs!:woohoo:
 
To those wondering about buying foam coolers at a resort. As of last weekend "some" resorts do sell them! We found a couple in the stores food area at WL.
 
So many smart answers to the cooler dilemma Heather! What would you do without all these wonderful women around??

Oh.... and if it's just juice you're after- why not just pack some fruit juice boxes in your suitcase then use the ice bucket to cool down the drink you need for the day?

FRIDGE DILEMMA SOLVED!!! THANK YOU CINDEEE!!!!!!

A foldable cooler- I never thought of that!!

I know!! This is the most helpful messageboard of all time! It doesn't even matter if you're asking about sewing, or even anything Disney related! Do they have ice buckets at Pop? They probably do, but I don't think I've ever used them! That's a great idea, too!

Yes Pop Century DOES have ice buckets AND they have ice machines;) They also provide plastic bag liners with the buckets.
 
Hello all I wanted to say thank you for all the nice comments on my friends dds disco Mickey outfit. She loved it I was still making it when she came over and she keep asking me who it was for. I said for very nice little girl. So when I had her try it on I said can you model this for me and she said yes then I said do you like it and she said she loved it I did a great job. Then I said would you like to keep it because i made it for you. And she jumped in my lap and yelled hey mom I am the nice girl and this is my dress it was for me Austyn. :love:


Steph I too would not have cut into it if I had more it was a remnant of only 2/3 yard. So I could only do so much with it to begin with. I think I made good use of it.

Heather I am so sorry for your scary dream. I think the part that would have scared me the most is having the disneyhater come pick us up.

I hope you all have a great day.
