Improvise!

I wasn’t loving the flower girl baskets I found in the stores or online and I certainly didn’t want to pay the price they were asking if I didn’t really like it. While at the craft store I bought a cute little dark brown basket. I had Andy spray paint it black. I tried putting ribbons on it but that wasn’t doing it for me either. So I sat for a bit. I looked it up and down. I flipped it around. I looked around my super fun workshop and spotted the fabric I bought for the cupcake tower but didn’t use. ZING! That ought to do it! So I pulled out a mess of supplies and started playing.

I think Aaliyah will like it. It kinda reminds me of this AWESOME line of kid’s stuff I found called Little Miss Matched.  Stripes and dots and squiggles, oh my!
