Meant To Be

I few days ago I moved from my dirty, hot and leaky make shift room into the house and the main bed room. I tell you, it was like we were meant to be together.

Everything has its little bit of space and the atmosphere is perfect. The only complaint is that at night it get’s very dark but threw the day the sun comes threw the window and lights it up.

I don't think I have told you about the wonderful Dresser my folks got me for chrissy. Isn't it just the bees knee?!

I just need some pink fluffy fabric to cover the chair with.

I do not have a hat problem.

This is half of my inbuilt wardrobe. HAFT! I'm so happy.



Now, I just need new bed set and I'm all set.

P.S.

I keep meaning to do a post on the amazing 1957 wedding dress I was given but I am waiting till I can give it a good steam and get photos of the previous owner wearing it. So keep tuned!

Frill me!

Just a super quick post to show you the dress I made today and will wear out tonight. I drafted her myself but she is inspired by this one warn by Vixen Vintage. Gosh, I love that girl.

Got to run but I hope I'll get some photo of me in it tonight.\

Love,

Good bye, 2010.

And what a fine year it has been! To celebrate here are some unseen photos from this year.

I can’t wait to spend another wonderful year blogging and following all my new friends on blogspot.

Tutu & A Midsummer Nights Dream

This year the last Ballet of the year was A Midsummer Nights Dream and for it each second year made a Tutu in class time and a make in production time.

The above photo is of the tutu that I made (still needing to be hemmed at the time) that later became one of the Fairy Core featured in photo below.

The other costume I made was for Helena, seen above and on stage below.

The show was not only very pretty but fun too. Lot's of glitter and sequins.

OH, and before I forget:

THANK YOU!

Lot's of love,

Rococo

I have been a very busy bee this last week finishing on my 18th century dress for my Period Garments class that was due yesterday. Annnnnd here she is! She’s a 1770 Sack Back Gown.

This has been one of the hardest things I’ve had to do in my two years of WAAPA. I’m so proud of myself, I almost died of joy once I had sewn the last hook on.

Cécile Mimieux

A little while ago the beautiful Cécile Mimieux did a photo shoot with Perths own very talented David Woolley and luck me, they used the costume I made!

I am just bubbling over with joy. What beautidul photos Cécile and David have made.

If you are in Perth or ever will be I urge you to check both of these wonderful people out. Put it on your to do list!
