To all of you creative things who make these adorable outfits....where do you get the shirts/dresses that you start with? It's hard to find plain white CUTE/stylish shirts --- or at least I haven't had any luck.

Honestly, I find decent quality shirts at Old Navy. They seem to not shrink or pill when you wash them.

Walmart, Kohl's, Target, OldNavy, (occassionally) Kmart, and ToysRUs to name a few ... and don't forget to look in packages on the hang wall with the underwear = I found some CUTE ruffled Cap-sleeved Tshirts there at Walmart last year (not this year though ) and they were only 3 for $7or8 ...
+ Hobby Lobby sells SOME plain white Tshirts & Tank Tops, childrens' & adult sizes , but not alot in Toddler & Infant sizes ...

Max10 (if you have a family version near you) & Mr. B's sometimes have some cute children's tops & jumpers & dresses.

IF you lack a retail outlet near you = check their online stores

Thanks, it was a sheet set that Disney sold last year. I purchased a twin set and had my mom make this dress. We have plenty left over for the next few years to come! Maybe you could still find this on ebay?

I will have to try to find that!

Hi Castlecreations,
I've been trying to find you for a while. I have a business question for you, but don't want to get you into trouble by posting here. Please send an email to heartsofmine2004@yahoo.com
Thanks so much!!!

Here is a picture I took today of my daughter Belle wearing her Easter dress I made for her yesterday. Thanks soo much for the ruffle tip! It shaved off sooo much time! jen

I made this black t-shirt for the cruise, just drew on a Mickey head and attached some bling with fabric glue. It wasn't too over the top and I got lots of compliments. Just do what feels right to you and don't worry about other people!

I LOVE your black shirt!! How did you come up with the prefect Mickey head? DH made a big lime green head for our hotel window when we go in 2 weeks it's ummm ok, you can tell it's mickey.... but the ears are to small and to close together. Just curious what your secret was. I plan on putting some jewels on my DD's shoes for our trip also (in the shape of Minnie's head). I am a little scared to do it, I don't want to mess them up! jen

Hi CastleCreation! I've been trying to PM you but keep getting an error message. I don't know if I'm doing something wrong...I'm still new to this! Love your clothing and would like some info. My email is SHEL1126@aol.com. Hope to hear from you!

MickeyFan- You're dress is so cute. I always have trouble with button holes for some reason. It's funny how you can sew to get around doing them. I'm glad the ruffle tip worked out for you. I can't stand to gather anything that long. I always double the ruffle. So if the outfit measures 40 inches around the hem, I cut 80 inches of fabric. Yikes.. it is so much easier pinning it, instead of gathering it. Well you inspired me to do a little sewing today. I'm making a cow outfit. Not really like a costume, just with cow print material. I'm not sure how this one will come out, but my daughter really wanted it. Wish me luck, I'll post pictures when I get it finished. I hope everyone had a great Easter. I ate way to much candy...ohh bellyache Lisa

lol I did make button holes I basicly did a double ruffle also. Good Luck on the cow print! Can't wait to see the finished product!! Our Easter was great! jen

Here is the first picture of the cow dress. It all started with this great fabric that looked like lined notebook paper and the fabric says Moo. I just had to make a cow outfit. It's not even close to done. But this is the general idea. There are ruffles on the front and back, and there will be a cow print waist sash. Also cow print pants of course, ruffle ones, like little bow peep. Crazy huh? LOL

 

[CastleCreations]

It would help if I posted the picture. LOL

 

[Kellyscrapbooks]

LOL... one of my best friend's daughters LOVES cows. She would die for a cow dress!

 

[*MickeyFan*]

Very Cute! I got my DD's shoes done, I will post a picture in a bit

 

[CastleCreations]

Kellyscrapbooks, if I were the tag fairy, I would definately give you the "she would die for a cow dress"

I traced a mickey head with a white chalk pencil and spaced my jewels from there. I used a head a little smaller than the one posted on this thread, it is around post number 373. I'm sure it could be enlarged and printed out! HTH!

OH ok! Wonder how I missed that! Thanks

Here are the shoes I made for DD tonite. I actually had DH draw the heads on the shoes... and I glued on the crystals, I love how they turned out! I think I may spell out Minnie on the sides, not totally sure yet.
