So Mila's first Birthday is on the 7th and I needed something to get her. We are low on cash and trying to be the crafty mama I am I figured we could use a doll that was in the shed and give her some new clothes. I was looking around online for an easy cheap doll dress when I came across this tutorial on how to make a bandanna dress.
Our Walmart has bandanna's for $1.00 so I figured why not, I can at least give it a try so I decided to make matching outfits for my daughter and her new baby doll. I spent $3.00 on the bandanna's and got some ribbon in the clearance section for $1.00. I started with my daughter's dress and all in all it took me about 20 minutes or so to finish. The doll dress was a little longer cause I had to cut the bandanna's down a bit because, let's face it, dolly's are not as wide as little girls LOL
So for a total of $3.20 or so with the ribbon that was used I have a brand new Birthday Dress and a little dress for my daughter's first dolly. I do have to say I am happy and that hopefully she loves her dolly as much as I use to love my dolly's. I will be sure to post some pictures of her in her dress on her birthday and some of her playing with her dolly.
