Description
Here it is, the final product of all my hard work! It was so much fun to make the dress and I poured so much hard work into it that I was scared to actually draw the bricks on! Halloween was such a blast! My friends and I ended up dancing into the wee small hours of the morning! I’m a big proponent of comfy shoes on Halloween, so I took some old sneakers, spray adhesive and lots of red glitter and made my self some ruby slippers. I also decided to make a little “brick” bag to carry around all my stuff. So following stacey6907’s pattern for an Envelope Clutch Bag I whipped it up! (not to say it was easy, more to come on this!) To finish up the look I made a little Emerald City hair piece.
