Hanley's shirt

This was a fun and interesting project...took me a little longer than I would have liked. I bought the shirt at the thrift store. As I was cutting it into pieces- I noticed, "Hanely" written in permanent marker on the inside button strip. Thank you, Hanley, for donating your wear so I could make new wear.For a link to this AWESOME blog and a free tutorial on how to make this dress go HERE

WHY?

Why is it that to sell a house...you do all sorts of 'projects' to make it look better, homier, more inviting, livable, smelling good etc....only to sell it to someone else to enjoy all the improvements!?
Why didn't we do this all along or right when we moved in; so WE could enjoy it and be proud home owners.! Silly, silly....silly. p.s. I HATE showing the home...how many times do I have to deep clean/polish to the max - to get this thing sold! Kids make it especially hard to KEEP clean, there is little toys everywhere, not to mention kid grime - i.e. sticky floors, dried smashed food in the kitchen, dirty handprints on the doors and walls..... I could never do house cleaning for a living.

oh wait, I do. Everyday.
