that's the idea behind this chica's very cool blog, "new dress a day". several months ago, marisa lost her job. to help herself out of a rut, she decided to challenge herself with spending $1 a day, every day for a year to buy and remake a dress.
day 245she's cute, she's perky and her accompanying anecdotes are really funny.
she is currently on day 263 and her upcycled frocks are pretty amazing!

so, check her out, she will inspire you to go ahead and keep that old bride's maid dress!!oh, and one last thing, take a gander at these two pics- the first one is my niece, kip and the second one is miss marisa above....they are possibly twin sisters of different mothers!!
grateful today:
1. that the rain stopped

3. that t.willie's bedtime is EARLY!
