Recyled Couture

My little cousin Malinda is going to be a fashion designer. I can't wait until she grows up so she can go on Project Runway, knock their socks off, win the whole damn thing, and design clothes for me. haha

From what I hear, she sews best without a pattern and makes clothes and accessories as a general rule. She got a dress form mannequin for Christmas this past year. Apparently she really ingerited her mother's sewing gene. Malinda is SO talented and I always love everything she makes. :)

This time she sent me a little package in the mail with a new bow inside it! She made it from duct tape and splatter painted it. It looks SOOOO cool. It's attached to a barrette in the back so it's easy to clip in and out.

I emailed her and asked her to make me some more. hahaha She's so creative and inspiring! Thanks Minda! Love you!
